For stays in Papua New Guinea you earn Points at a flat rate for each Qualifying Stay.
If you need to book more than one room at a Comfort property, you can earn Velocity Points on up to three hotel rooms on any one night, as long as the rooms are used in conjunction with your stay at the same hotel.
How many Points do I earn?
You earn three Points per dollar spent at Comfort properties within Australia and New Zealand; or a flat rate of 1000 Points per stay at Comfort properties in Papua New Guinea.
