Re: Qantas Platinum One now includes free 'Partner Platinum' status
The marketing spin on there is rather high IMHO.
I don't know what research QF have done but to advertise one of the benefits as "Waive Family Transfer Service Fee" when every man and his dog can do so free of charge online appears a bit desperate.
What this illustrates is that QF now definitely consider P1 as the top earned status and seem to be trying to actively market it as the top level. When it was introduced this wasn't so much the strategy.

Wow oh wow. I must be a little late to all this but i was researching something tonight and had to refer to the QF status benefits page for the first time in a long time.
The new 'Platinum 1' column of benefits now includes 17 items which are not available to platinums. The way they have listed it makes platinum look rather sad!
