If I don't requalify for QFFF Gold, will I fall back to Bronze or Silver?

I'm hoping it's Silver. I know this is an easy question for you guys!

Thank you!

If you still do the 4 QF metal flights you should soft land back to Silver.

If you still do the 4 QF metal flights you should soft land back to Silver.

Plus an extra 3 months of QP membership in quite a few cases (although not guaranteed).

In fact even if you do zero Qantas flights you may be soft landed only one level... as per my experience!

There are several things that can happen. You might be automatically comped another year of gold, this seems to happen if you are very close to re-qualifying for gold.

Or else Qantas ask you what your travel plans for the next year are. You then write back with your plans and they may manually comp you to gold. This happened to me a few years ago.

If neither of these happen then you will likely get a 'soft landing' to silver for a year. There is no stated policy on this (as opposed to Virgin who do state in their terms), but it seems to be pretty consistently given to people who don't re-qualify to their current level.
