Platinum One P1 Christmas bubbly - what will you get? :)

[juddles]

Hi all,

each year as a P1 member Qantas has the habit of sending out a bottle of bubbly - usually a nice one. It is one of those un-specific perks of the status level.

Given we are now heading to the end of yet another year, I was wondering what and how this all goes for AFF's P1 members. I think I have noted a marked decline in AFF P1 members (or at least input) since the LTP goal was set somewhere that would find many of us needing to live to about 200. This is the feeling I get.

But anyway, just for this Christmas, wondering how we all go. To my knowledge we have never been able to decipher the decision making within QF that guides the Christmas bottle - many members often get a non-drink Chrissy present. But concepts such as "government employees not being able to receive alcohol" have been debunked by true member experiences.

2019 has been a huge year for me (especially in my decision to avoid QF), and I have explained/commented/posted about my chaotic thoughts about this ad nauseum in other threads. But as a last hurrah lets see how Qantas do in this simple yearly task. Delivery of a bottle of bubbly (or other) to each "valued" member

Isn’t it being limited to $22.50 this year? There were quite a few recalled to the QF WIne shop.

Is it already that time of the year again?

While the most I'm expecting from Qantas is a WP newsletter about how well they're enforcing priority boarding, I do thoroughly enjoy reading stories of Sendle's inability to deliver a package. Best of luck to you all, may your packages be assigned to couriers who aren't complete duds.

If you look at what's available on Qantas Wine, it's probably likely to be Taittinger Comtes de Champagne 2007/2006, Bollinger La Grande Annee 2007, Piper Heidsieck Rare 2002 or Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame 2006.
No Krug there.

What has been sent in all the previous years?

There's a big assumption here -

1. That there will be a gift (very likely)
2. That it will be Champagne (* or something else for govt employees)


I take nothing for granted and assume nothing. I agree likely Taittinger Comtes 2007 again (2006 was much nicer imo) but in the past therre have been differences. Remember one year some got that amazing Krug 2000, and there was the books before the Champ started).

All I hope is, if there is a gift, that I do not get a notification from Sendle....

Is that what you recieved? Multiple people in the P1 thread have indicated that it's the Piper Heidsieck Rare Champagne 2002. Wonder if there are different one's being handed out...
