I just got this email too, what a nice surprise to wake up too.

And of course I just booked a trip to the US on Friday. Doh! Actually said to a colleague that as soon as I book, this would happen

Darn mine are all self funded

The offer coincides with an overnight increase of ~$250 per person for Y flights to SIN that I’ve been watching.

My dates are outside the travel window for this offer so it won’t matter, but I do wonder if the two things are related.

YMMV.

Just had some fully flexible J bookings refunded that I made last week and then I re-booked them (same fares were still available)

Have registered but doubt I can make any bookings in the next week for travel in the window - more likely to be VA ones so I can re-qual Gold (or achieve Plat again).

Interesting to note this line in the T&Cs:

If you change or cancel your initial qualifying booking and/or travel is completed outside the promotional period, this bonus offer will not apply.

So does this mean that if you change your flight but the PNR stays the same and the travel is still completed in the promotional period, you won't earn extra status credits?

Probably enforced about as strictly as the double SC promo with GV. Vaguely tempted to buy a GV and see what happens.

There are 5 potential options in that condition, including "you change your initial qualifiying booking". That lets them deny bonus points if there is a change.

The full 5 options where this bonus offer will not apply are:

1. you change your initial qualifying booking and travel is completed outside the promotional period,
2. you cancel your initial qualifying booking and travel is completed outside the promotional period,
3. you change your initial qualifying booking,
4. you cancel your initial qualifying booking,
5. travel is completed outside the promotional period

According to that condition

The window for travel is very tight.

 

[QF WP]

I think the travel window is generous but the booking window is tight - as I'm off in 14 days to the USA and haven't started thinking about work related travel after my return

That condition has been in several offers, including the last DSC offer. I'm sure the effect hasn't changed.

It’s only for travel until August. It’s usually much longer than that. Last one was for almost a year.

Probably to stop certain magic.

Reduced take up of offer then.

The QBR offers tend to have shorter travel periods (probably inline with being for business travel)

 

[mviy]

Indeed. One would think most business travel isn't going to be booked several months in advance.

Ours is planned for the year for overseas client bookings. Has to be or it won’t be scheduled in.

 

[mviy]

Well I would suspect that most business even if they've planned what's going to happen for the year wouldn't want to spend the cash several months ahead of flying for cash flow reasons and also in case things change a bit.
