How long do BA, Finnair and Other oneworld flights take to credit to Qantas?

Cathay is taking a long time at the moment

Must be getting much better. Flew Cathay Melbourne to New York on Sunday and points were in my account by Tuesday.

My Finnair experience this past year has varied from "before I landed" to "a couple of weeks later..."

IIRC, my AY flights (once my Qantas FF number was linked correctly) came in 4 days.

Cathay always credits Tuesday evening to QFF. Not sure about Tuesday flights, but definitely for everything from Wednesday to the day before. I've found it very reliable, don't think I've ever had to put in a claim, for dozens of flights in the last few years at least.

I find Finnair flights will often randomly not credit, and chasing it up can require a boarding pass after multiple claims of it being a non-earning booking class.

I’ll see how that tracks - I’ve had 4 already and 4 more CX flights coming this year. So far so good and generally for years they’ve been fine but as mentioned upthread, I did have some sectors “no show” two years ago, and they were needed to retain QF WP! Fortunately sorted quickly.

Yup, on my end:

• American Airlines: same day
• Alaska Airlines: 3-7 business days
• Cathay Pacific: every Tuesday

CX batches up everything for a week and sends them off to QF on Tuesday afternoon/evening.
Departures on Tues morning before the time the batch is run thus post that day, departures in the afternoon after they run the batch will take a week.
