    Best value for return flight MEL-LHR with 2A, 1C, 1I with part points

    Hi all, In the last few years my husband and I have been accumulating points, as his parents live in London and we'd like to go back to visit them. Currently I'm pregnant with our second child, and our daughter is almost two. At the moment we have about 78,000 points - not heaps, but enough to...

    What's YOUR QFF goal?

    After a thought-provoking post from dajop here, and my current desire to learn as much as I can about earning/redeeming QFF points, I was wondering what your aim is with your points. Do you spend a lot on DOM flights so you can use points for INT flights? Is your main goal SCs? Do you redeem...

    Does cancelling cards after points negatively effect future chances of getting a CC?

    A lot of people have sort of, in some way, asked this question, but usually it's thrown in with other questions, and whether we have a credit rating system in Australia, etc. I've read these threads...

    Vegetarians in the QP?

    The likelihood of me joining the QP anytime in the next year is fairly low, especially given the cost vs. not much travel, but for future reference (I was just reading the thread about Qantas Club and Business Lounges), are the many vegetarian options? I'm vegetarian and find often even the...

    How do you (personally) calculate the value of points?

    Looking at a return international flight, I calculated that it takes 55 points to earn $1 in flight value. I know this can vary hugely depending on deals, locations, whatever, but I'm just taking it as a random number. Now, say, when I'm trying to decide between getting points or cash savings...

    First EDR purchase not credited?

    Just need to get this little rant out: when my husband and I first moved to our new suburb (where Woolies is the local), we signed up for an EDR on our first, massive shop of >$400, figuring we'd get the credit. Looking at my points, though, I saw that we hadn't received them, and so called up...

    Gift Cards for everyday purchases to double points?

    I've been reading through the EDR threads, and it seems that people manage to buy gift cards (and get points), and then spend that giftcard and get points for that purchase as well. Is that possible, or am I misunderstanding, because it seems like a huge loophole. If you can explain why people...

    How did you become a Qantas Frequent Flyer

    As an absolute newbie who has no real chance to collect SC through flying each year, I was curious to learn how each of you have reached the levels you have. Obviously there's the 'how to earn points' thread, but I'd be interested to know how long you've been getting points, whether the majority...

    QFF Pregnancy Upgrade

    Hi guys, I've been lurking for a while, and I'm not sure if this is the right place, but thought I'd ask anyway. My husband and I are hoping to fly with his two daughters in December to the UK (not on points, but as a QFF Bronze member) at which time I'll be around 20 weeks pregnant (i.e...
