So got an email tonight - if you book an international flight with QF between 2 November and 7 November (I seem to have missed the original email) you go in to the draw to win 5m FF points.
The interesting thing from the terms and conditions is this...
i cannot understand on any basis how they have come up with a max value of $94,605? 5M FF points would buy 13 return first class tickets Australia to London. Even at a generous $10 per ticket (with their current promo), that comes to $130K. I suppose you take taxes out of that? Anyway - assuming you don't buy during the promo the value would be closer to $208000 (but take off taxes of approx $19000) - still way above their notional value. Something looks fishy. This is WAY too basic a mistake for it not to be intentional.
Mods - i did a quick search but didn't see a thread already on this - please merge if there is.
