    Are 70 SCs worth 120,000 FF points to keep WP?

    Hi RichardMEL, Don't have any issues with most of what you are saying (and will no doubt cough up for Qantas Club membership as a Silver QFF) and I guess my quibble is how Qantas FF determined 80K in QFF points as the requirement.

    Qantas upgrade without points?

    I was interested to read all the posts on this so I thought I would add my two cents worth as well. I have been flying Qantas for more than 30 years and before frequent flyers points was even heard of I used to average 4- 6 overseas trips a year for many years but now the major part of my...
