I was just hoping for some advice. I'm in the midst of planning my next holiday to Taiwan and see that there are direct flights from Australia on CI which are codeshared. If I fly the QF marketed, CI operated flights (e.g.QF 389 from SYD to TPE), will I get normal QF status credits and miles...

We recently stayed at St Regis KL and I booked the accommodation via Qantas Hotels as the rate was significantly cheaper than direct with Marriott. I understand that the room charges, as not booked direct, will not earn any points. Does this mean that the food and beverage charges (eg...
