Change from Oneworld FF program to QFF to earn miles/credit

[auhk]

I have a flight coming up in Qantas discount economy. There are no miles or status credits awarded to my Oneworld program, but I would like to use my status to get lounge access, priority luggage and so on. What's the best way to earn Qantas FF but keep my benefits? Ask post check-in to switch programs?

It's possible but be honest with yourself is it really worth it?

Just use your OW status for the benefits and get over not earning any miles.

You can send a message to your FFP airline and express your disappointment in not being able to earn miles on QF in discount economy.
They are the only ones who can change it.
