Looking at CX CNS/HKG/CNS in PE and HKG/KUL/HKG in Y what QA status points would be had?.

Short answer is none (points not credits), QF dont pay status bonuses for travel with CX (they do have status credits), and have a smaller cabin bonus as well, with PE being 10%, J 25%. I would recommend you look at a JASA to TPE (or JQ- shudder), then a J fare ex TPE to KUL and back, then home with a return J ex TPE, which leaves you with a J return leg to be used in 6 months, and a stack of SCs:

Not looking for "bonus points" just status points from CX to QA.

What is best one way to TPE?.

What Status points would be gained from TPE/HKG/CNS?

I use mileage monkey and the Status Credits page which shows the mileage bands

I think you mean Status Credits (not points), its 140 TPE-HKG-CNS one way in J

Mileage Monkey using one world explorer validator with ignore errors checked will give you SC results.

indeed but no PE sadly yet

What is best one way to TPE?.

JQ is $600 One Way in Business with an overnight in Japan required, with Y travel for the last leg ex CNS

 

[Limewood]

Yes sorry my bad.

Looked up April TPE/HKG/CNS one way a mere $1574 AUD in J.

Need to be in HKG 13th and 14th April.

Can't see any JQ for these dates.

Please note I have updated the thread title to reflect the Qantas IATA Airline Code as QF rather than the QA as used by the OP. Please use one of the recognised abbreviations when referring to Qantas, being QF (IATA code), QFA (ICAO Code), or QAN (ASX code).

Do CX flights in class O earn any Qantas status credits? I'm guessing 'no', but the Qantas website doesn't actually have a definition of 'eligible booking classes'.

 

[yohy?!]

O is deep discount on CX - usually you can only credit them to BA Avios

In the QFF airline earning table these are the valid deep discount fare codes that will earn 0.5 x points and 1 x status credits at Disc Economy rate

One of the options I'm looking for my trip to HKG/SIN next year is with CX with routing ADL-xMEL-HKG-SIN-HKG-ADL. Would this get me 100 or 110 QF status credits (not sure how the ADL-xMEL-HKG flight is counted)? Would be in V fare class.
