    Is P1 worth a couple of hundred SCs?

    I was about to post the opposite! If you have a quiet year planned next year, the soft landing to plat may be worth it. Think of it as requalifying for platinum with 200sc...

    Double Status Credits promotion (Book by 27/2/24, travel 28/2/24-14/2/25)

    One final question, booked my flights today, realised I didn't have the card I wanted to use on me, so paid the $25 to 'hold the booking'. I thought that held it for 24hrs, it's actually a month... I have a booking reference, just need to pay the balance (99.9% of the fare) by 26th of March...

    Double Status Credits promotion (Book by 27/2/24, travel 28/2/24-14/2/25)

    I have a customer care credit voucher (which has a booking reference) I wonder if I book a flight using it, whether it will count as new booking today for DSC or when the voucher was issued...

    "... we'll shortly announce a major investment to improve our Frequent Flyer program"

    So the flight I'm currently looking at, which is probably QFi's most popular route, at Christmas, so most popular (read expensive) time: Syd-Lhr in J Flex pricing $17,000 CR = 289,200 points = 5.87c per point value Points plus pay = 3,000,000 = 0.567c per point value. Now we know QF prices...

    Best Annual Multi-Trip Travel Insurance in the new COVID World?

    Just bumping this, going to take out an annual plan as have several trips planned in the next 15 months. First of those is in May, question is when should I start the policy.

    Platinum Newsletter

    Surely the 25 words are not actually going to be read and are just to get around 'skill vs lottery' legislation! Having said that, I googled aesthetic unusual views of Paris, to give them a good image to go with my successful trip (as my fat mug ain't going to 'fly' in marketing).

    Qantas boosts international capacity, wet lease Finnair aircraft

    Awesome, doing Syd-BKK CR and BKK - LHR AY Revenue J in May. (J return to London for $3600 and 160k points which is actually bookable) Will be interesting to compare the QF AYJ to the AY AYJ back to back!

    Qantas boosts international capacity, wet lease Finnair aircraft

    Can I confirm (seem logical, but) that points club attracts status credits on these flights? They are still qantas flights not codeshares right?

    Qantas price match?

    I think the problem is that the ACA is completely toothless. The ONE thing that the ACA can do that we can't is put stuff in writing. My number one gripe with Qantas customer service is it's all phone based. Which means no accountability and no follow through, you have to start again every time.

    Qantas price match?

    Twitter, but that didn't get me anywhere, the twitter team only managed to see that there was an ongoing customer complaint, they were unable to get involved. I last posted on twitter about it beginning of June.
