New QF points calculator

Same as CX though.

KA flies to many destinations not served by CX.

You're doing it wrong...

But I want to know how many points it will cost me to fly SYD to DFW in first, not how many I'll earn.

In that case, consult the table on this page: Frequent Flyer - Flying Qantas & Partner Airlines - Flying with Qantas & Jetstar - Using Qantas Points

EDIT: For a O/W Classic Award you'd be up for 168,000 points.

Sorry! I calculated the right mileage using GC Mapper, but then looked at the wrong row on the QF table. Post amended.

The final batch of airline partners is now available on the Earning Points Calculator:

MU, IB, LY, AB, HG, UL, TL, NF, PX, 9W, AZ, N9, RJ, EI, S7, SA

While no functionality will change, additional city pairs have been added corresponding to the partner routes.

Great, but some US operated flights are still missing...

Not all of the AB routes have been loaded. eg NUE-SPU.

An amazing calculator just keeps getting better!

An amazing calculator just keeps getting better!

Yeah ... amazing ... Just keeps showing me how much less the earn is these days compared to that for most of the previous decade ...

I guess at least it shows me which airline codeshare to maximise earnings.

At least it's making it easier to compare to other FF schemes ... always best to make informed decisions.

And I resume our partner OW bookings made pre-QF earning change announcement still earn at the 'old' rates ? e.g SIN to HEL used to be 140 x SCs but now 80 x SCs.

Anyone had any experience with QF honouring the SCs / points ?

I have yet to fly a pre-change booking but will be counting on the SCs for that QF LLG target.

I have had no issues with QF honouring the old SC/points, but in all cases with partner flights (CX/BA/AA), I had to email QFF and request the adjustment.
QF flights seem to adjust themselves within a few days.

BNE - AKL on QF doesn't allow the selection of First for the QF codeshare on EK. Selecting EK results in zero SCs.

School boy error in the calculator!!

The functionality is vastly better than we've ever had. I wasn't commenting in my or anyone else's reduced earnings.

There are many flights on CX/BA/AA where you get more value for your points sending it to the AA program instead of to QFF. Even as a QF Plat you would get more out of sending it to AA as a non-status member.

It simply doesn't make sense to credit oneworld flights to QF unless you want QF status to kick in or you have no means to shift other points earning opportunities to another program.

Domestic travel is another story, but if you're after as many points as possible then VA earning is far superior to QF if you're on anything except super-super discounted sale fares or first class.

In a nut shell you've nailed my issues, I want to get to LTG to start with.

Beyond that most of my travel is domestic, I only book sales and I quite often book sales on routes VA doesn't fly

Seems like a simple choice from there
