New QFF Status Renewal Packs?

I'm not sure what a newly qualified Platinum's pack would look like. It'd be nice if it was like the "black book block" when they formally rolled out NGCI, but anyway.......

Mine (last May/early June) looked like Lindsay's gold re-qual pack. My QP PS, and SG qual packs were in the NGCI launch boxes. Compared to that, the WP qual pack in the fold out cardboard brochure seemed a disappointment. But, as long as I got that card in my hands, and more importantly, status in my account, that's all that mattered to me! :)
 
Mal probably feels better now knowing he's not the only one ;)

I wonder what I'll get when I drop from QP PS to QP NB. Most of my flying this year is on Skyteam and *Alliance.
 
V8Statesman sent me his new Plat pack, note the change from female to male in the photo:
...

Now I'm at home, I've checked. I got that dude, too.

Yes I got a male on a boat too. From what I remember the last photo on the Platinum brochure when I requalified was a male or a family on a beach, or a dock.

Where do Qantas get the inspiration for these photos, and what kinds of emotions are they trying to evoke?

Perhaps a photo of someone relaxing in the F Lounge would be more appropriate, or getting F kerbside service. Then again, maybe the idea is, "Don't put anything that reminds them of more travel, because they already have plenty of that. Give them something they'd rather be doing..." Though, that thought doesn't bode well for the Gold pack (is anyone keen on frolicking frivolously through a flower field?)

Probably better a picture there than just more wire-drawing kangaroos, or concentric hexagons.

I certainly wish I had a boat like in that picture (I also wished I looked that healthy, too!) :p Of course, I'd probably sell the boat, pocket the cash and use it for more travel.... :p :mrgreen:

Probably nothing. You can't "requalify" (or qualify) for NB. :p
 
Just recieved my wp pack. Looks different from what I saw from a while back

I like how the card is red edged. And my name is a silver foil instead of the white printing :)

Unfortunately it came in a black plastic bag with big 'made in china' printed on the back.

If you lose WP, do you automatically drop back to SG or do you still have had to earn enough to quali for SG?

If you think those packs are bad, should see what those dropping from PS to NB get.

A stinking one page letter with a replacement card stuck on with gum. Rather unexciting.

As a NB you should be more than grateful for your stinking one page letter. :p
 
Received my pack today, the day after I could have used it. No worries though as I got free access yesterday anyway.

It's hard to tell the difference between silver & platinum qtags as they look very similar. Have to agree the CL black ones rock! :cool:

Sam you must've been a Bower Bird in another life with your penchant for collecting things. :)

This photo just for you :)

Congratulations on becoming one of us :p

Were the Platinum Q Bag Tags always that dark (almost looks black)? Mine looks light grey like the Silver one. Have they changed or has sunlight taken its toll on my tag?

I did wonder that actually, as I didn’t think they were that dark before. Now all I need is a black CL tag to complete my collection… please! :p
