For those of you in the IC Hotels Priority Club programme, the Holiday Inn on Flinders is now listed in the as available for the Pointsbreak redemption - that's only 5000 points per night. Excellent value IMO. I haven't tried to book, so I have no idea on availability.
There is no such link, or at least not that I've seen. I found it when doing a dummy booking. You need to commence the booking process on spg.com. A list of rates will appear after you've selected the property. Click on 'Terms and Details' under 'Melb in Winter Offer.'

I'm surprised it was ever n the list, but if ever folk needed proof that when it comes to redemptions, strike while the iron is hot is an adage to live by.

You can say that again!! I booked 3 nites to attend 2 different conferences on the day the promotion came out, and when I went back to see if I could book more rooms (not sure whether I would be needing them, hence my delay), the 5000 promo was gone!!

I will be booking my airfares in the next 24 hours or so. Can't wait around till the last minute to book a PE deal or anything else.
Currently with Qantas, it's $260 return to $340 return depending on which flights I choose. Virgin Blue is currently roughly $350 to $380 return (at the times I want to travel).
DJ (eg DJ322 Arriving 3:20pm on Fri, DJ317, Leaving 10:15am on Sun) = $348+booking fee.
QF (eg QF621 Arriving 3:15pm on Fri, QF614, Leaving 11:05 on Sun) = $258 + booking fee.

I don't care how you get to Melbourne, you need to look at this option for the return, think of the extra points. It was pricing at $212.00
