Altitude to QFF transfer of points ?

[PLANT]

Hi there,

I have 25,000 Altitude points "Reserved"(meaning I get 1:1)
I want to transfer 22267 points to QFF program.
When I go transfer in Altitude program it says 22,000 redeem now.

Can I get them to transfer 22267 points?
How?

All I read is minimum 5000 points to be transferred..

There is a set increment, which is I think 500 for Qantas, so you would need to transfer either 22,000 or 22,500 points.

I thought it was 500points and the fine print confirms it on the site.
22,500 transferred.

Any reason for not transferring the lot?

Yep, Going to transfer 100,000 QFF to family member.
That transaction rounded it up.

Now keeping ALTITUDE points, as flexible with other airlines after 31st March.

Reading the threads though the "QFF IDEA" people(closing choice of CC to QFF) will probably get laid off in recession as share price drops and everyone else holds their point in CC account, resulting in a QFF program rethink and return to the way it is now!

Probably helping Qantas but curious, hence the polls I setup.

No worries, just wondered as the 'Reserved' thing is not going to have much meaning post April.

"Reserved" points for other airline though for 1:1?

For Malaysia yes, for Air NZ whatever the airpoints ratio was at the time.

Other airlines (SQ,DJ) were added more recently so doesn't count for them.
