Double Status Credits - QBR Exclusive (October 2025)

Don’t tell me Qantas are getting desperate 🤦‍♀️
Yep and handing out points/SC's rather than a concerted effort at any of the below:
  • a Call Cenetre that actually knows what Qantas does
  • Staff who understand who the customer is
  • Executives who understand a sustainable business is good for everyone rather than extracting what they can for themselves in the short term
  • Qantas FF program has become too diluted to be a meaningful FF program
  • You know..actually be an airline...
 
Please correct me if I'm wrong but this offer does not need to be a GST-registered business.

I wonder if it will qualify if one is able to add the ABN to a CR over the phone; is this even possible? I've had success getting missing QBR points added after a paid flight by phoning and adding a missing ABN but, of course, CRs don't earn points (only SCs for points club members)

If you try, report back!

I’m still curious if a CR booked via the QBR portal picks up the ABN?

If you use the regular website and check the box “Travelling for XYZ”, that actually hides CRs from the search results…
 
The issue with this (at least for me) is that you need to have sufficient Business Rewards points in your account to be able to book through the Business Rewards portal whereas most of my points are in my personal account. I don't know of a way to transfer personal points to Business Rewards, only the other way around.

Can't you just book on your personal account and then add your ABN in MMB. Problem solved?

Nope. Can’t add ABN to a CR booking.

Well, not online - unless there’s a paid sector on the booking.

OK; so I took one for the team and ran the gauntlet of phoning QF. After being transferred to someone in the Business Rewards centre the agent took my ABN details and has assured me that it has been added to one of my existing CR bookings. Unfortunately I don't think there is anyway I can confirm whether it has been added.

An interesting point is that the agent stated that only one ABN can be attached to a booking so if I wanted +1's ABN also attached I would have to split the booking. If I'm reading the T&Cs of this offer correctly (and as +1 is also an employee of mine and I of her business), just having the one ABN attached should be sufficient.

I have been planning to make a CR booking anyway so I'll get it done before the offer ends, ring up and add an ABN and hopefully it all goes well.

If it stuck, it should show up in MMB under “Booking contact”. Below the phone numbers there’ll be:

ABN/QBN

This booking has been linked to a business.” Blah, blah and the ABN at the bottom.
