Thanks for the info Lewis. Sounds great! I really might have to consider making the move to P3D then...

By my reckoning it'll a point for every $ spent on the A2A store and each point is worth a dollar. Seems very fair to me. Well done A2A. :D

Of course there'll be a catch. Only redeemable at the A2A store. No transfers. :roll:

It would be nice if so, but I would expect that points are worth less when redeemed than when they are received. I will start buying from the A2A store instead of Simshack if you are right. Buy one, get one free. Can't beat it. :D

Simshack! Simshack ! wash your mouth out.

As Ron says it should be one for one so we can go on buying for free forever.Mind you I am 80 now and by the time Lewis calculates our discount I may be dead.

Caleb don't believe all you read.

Cheers Chris
It's all your fault Ron.

Please tell me you understood it was an attempt at humour

Yeh. Lets be real. It could be more like 5 points for every pound spent in store and 1 penny per point when redeemed. Like somewhere else I shop.

Like FS pilot shop you get 2 points for every dollar you spend and they are worth one cent when redeemed. I have some feeling A2A's points will be better than that though. It seems from the video that you get 1 point for every dollar you spend (the preview in the video where it has the connie page open and it says "earn 60 Flying Hours" and the connie is $60), and I am expecting that the points will be worth somewhere between 15 and 30 cents each when redeemed. Just my guess.

All this speculation is just that. Speculation. What we need is for the new site and new products to be up and running. Then we will know. Besides, I still have vouchers that I have been hanging on to since last Christmas so, get to it guys. :D
