Qantas extends status extensions until end June 2023 (previously December 2022)

I do feel sorry for people trapped in WA prison. I wonder if QF will give them an extra 50sc or something as a good luck gift?

Then what exactly is the point of taking one? ;)🤣

For the scenery. Some people like that. 🙂

We are not trapped in WA. We can anywhere in Australia that we want to. Without testing, too. Can fly overseas as well.

That part I totally agree with. I’m just over the innuendo and incorrect comments from someone who does not live in Western Australia, even with immediate family that does.

One way tickets only

Who wants to go home anyway

It's hardly incorrect
 
Back to the 4~ and rewards flights.

They have never counted towards the eligible sectors IIRC. I believe there could be confusion because for the purposes of the previously granted "book one flight get extension" promotions, rewards flight bookings DO count so it is a little confusing I guess.

However they are two separate things.

Hence my confusion, but all good will just do another paid return flight (I have a credit with DSC and an Amex voucher due) at some point unless status is extended again.

I was PC last year and was sure my classic reward flights did indeed count towards the 4 flights, not that we needed more than 1 flight for status then.

If you're in Points Club (or Points Club Plus), Classic Flight Rewards count towards the ~. If you're not in Points Club, they don't.

Explains why I was sure classic rewards did get shown as eligible last year, as i was points club then,

It is such a pain as I should be back in points club, except that 15k points I earned through Qantas Hotels before my last classic reward have yet to post, leaving me waiting at 4k points shy of PC, i should be well on way to PC+.

I see. I am corrected. apologies for this (I'm in PC but never noticed this as a part of it)

I do find this "perk" to be a bit counter intuitive to me. PC is supposed to be about earning on the ground and all. OK yes you get rollover SC for PCP and the lounge passes but it seems a bit weird they would be eligible.

though thinking it through logically given rewards flights earn SC for PC/PCP members then I suppose that makes them eligible under that category.

It's certainly a bit of a "hidden" extra benefit in my view. useful to know.

I agree in it seems a counter intuitive, but personally I'm glad it exists. I've been burning up a lot of points last year and this, so they've been contributing to my four flights, and I get SC's from the reward flights as well.

We cop the same in Qld also, with the lowlight being the continuing jibes from particularly parochial AP comments about hospitals - they were actually made nearly 18 months ago.

I have friends in WA and won't hesitate to go back there when I can.

cheers skip
 
I’ve just had an email from Kris Flyer advising their version of status is being extended a further 12 months from my anniversary. Also that membership points (SC) will be carried forward to continue earning. Now THAT is keeping your customers happy!

Maybe QF will extend status again. If they do I may as well wait longer before trying to level up to Platinum again.
