    Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options

    I would expect any double SC promo to be restricted to QF flights (or perhaps also flights sold as a QF codeshare), so I think you are unlikely to get double SC on these BA/AA flights. If it is a route you want to travel 700SC for $2500 still seems like a good deal anyway though.

    QFF Status run Europe

    Prague I think is just under the distance so would only be 80 SCs but is a great destination and you can often get hotels at a good price. I recall a few years ago seeing a fare at under £200 return on IB from LGW to BCN via MAD (similar to a route you have suggested above) which would have...

    QFF Status run Europe

    This used to be a great way of getting the 4 QF coded flight if based in Europe, but unfortunately I don't think it is possible anymore to get an Emirates flight from Europe terminating in Dubai under a QF code. I think this option seemed to disappear about a year or so after QF stopped serving...

    Who else has to regularly chase up Qantas for points & status credits owed....

    I know if you upgrade a paid BA flight with cash from economy to business you get the business class tier points and avios when you credit to BA Executive Club, but from what I recall when crediting a BA flight to most other Oneworld frequent flyer programmes (which I have always assumed...

    Qantas apologises to frequent flyers with status extensions, lounge passes, points & more reward seats

    I'll make it a sample size of three - I didn't get the email either. Whilst it did make reference to the $50, there was nothing obvious that I could see in the T&Cs to exclude overseas members from the points offers or status extension. From what I recall in an earlier extension emails went...

    Who else has to regularly chase up Qantas for points & status credits owed....

    The android BA app allows screenshots. I take a screenshot everytime just in case there is a problem with app loading when I'm at the boarding gate (although it has never happened), and also in case I need it as hasn't credited automatically to my Qantas account (which has happened often)...

    QF Top Up Points / Points Subscription survey (New)

    That would be interesting if they did something like this. If the status credits counted towards lifetime status I would definitely subscribe at $800 for 400SC. At $1000 for 200SC it would be more marginal, but probably would just about subscribe. If there was no status credit element and the...

    Qatar or Emirates as QFF for Sydney - Europe Business Class?

    If I was that close to Lifetime Gold I would definitely be choosing Emirates to get the extra SC.

    Qantas Green frequent flyer tier

    That would be my assumption as well. I think it said something like you could earn a maximum of 200 points per year with the quiz (100 points at a time), therefore I would expect it to appear at 6 month intervals. If it doesn't, or if people are unable or unwilling to wait and see if it resets...

    Qantas Green frequent flyer tier

    The FAQs state the following:- If I have a sustainable stay booked but I cancel my booking last minute, will I still receive recognition towards my Green tier status? Your sustainable stay at an eco-accredited hotel will count towards your Green tier status three to four days after you have...

    Creative routing from NA to UK

    There is a frequent direct coach service that takes less than an hour from LHR (Terminal 5) to LGW (North Terminal), or just slightly longer to/from other terminals. https://www.nationalexpress.com/en/airports/gatwick/heathrow-to-gatwick

    Status Credits on the ground

    Since Qantas first launched status credits on the ground offers there have been a number of different offers such as BP, Woolworth, Qantas Wine, Qantas Hotels, Qantas Club, Qantas Health Insurance, vaccinations, credit cards etc. It seems to have gone very quiet with recent offers involving...

    Slow posting of Status Credits from Partners

    Yet if they go to the https://www.qantas.com/gb/en/manage-booking.html page of their own website and enter the six character booking reference and surname it will bring up those details, or at least it does when I try it on one of my old British Airways bookings. Expanding the flight details...

    Qantas Green frequent flyer tier

    On the android app something appeared about claiming the reward, but when I clicked it just went to a generic page about the green tier and the was nothing to select. I had an old iPhone, so I gave it a go on that, and it brought up the options and I was able to select the 50 status credits.

    Qantas Green frequent flyer tier

    Certainly there is nothing in the T&Cs that asks for anything more than selecting the option to offset when booking a flight. You would expect if they are going to claw back points or SCs from those who cancel flights or don't fly that it would be clear in the T&Cs. Maybe it is too complex for...

    Qantas Green frequent flyer tier

    I'm not sure that I would risk cancelling if aiming to get 50SC as surely there is a risk that Qantas will just claw them back. If it was the 10,000 Qantas Points rather than the SCs it might be worth the risk of cancelling.

    Who else has to regularly chase up Qantas for points & status credits owed....

    Looks like my doubts about it being fixed may have been ill founded. My BA flights from last Friday and Sunday have credited today without having to submit a claim. Whilst taking a few days longer than previously, I'd be happy if my future flights credit within a week like these recent ones.

    Who else has to regularly chase up Qantas for points & status credits owed....

    My BA flights normally credited in 2 days, but haven't since November. My long outstanding ones have all now been credited, but I'm not sure if this was due to a QF fix, or simply my submitting a missing points claim and following up. My flights from last week haven't credited yet so I share...

    Who else has to regularly chase up Qantas for points & status credits owed....

    I had flight on Friday past with BA. BA flights (prior to the November issues) normally posted after 2 calendar days, so I would have expected to see the points and status credits in my account by now if it was fixed. I think Qantas quote something like up to 2 weeks for partner flights so it...

    Who else has to regularly chase up Qantas for points & status credits owed....

    The flights from early January I have now posted to my account. I submitted the webform to claim the missing flights about a week after the flights when they didn't show up. I haven't had to chase these ones with any emails or send boarding passes etc. I'll report back next week if my...
