To all the newly-minted Platinum One frequent flyers out there... I'm curious to hear... what's been your experience so far?

Anything different?

Free upgrades?

... or all hype?

Also received notification that it should arrive on Monday. I did try checking the My Post stuff but it would appear that my +1 has already set up an account with the common household email address in Her name.
 
Sydney ETA 5 December. I live maybe 15 minutes' drive away from Hatcher, so the whatever it is is taking a leisurely tour of Sydney this week.

Most likely AusPost only received the parcel late Friday evening or weekend. The shipment information received/approved is only paperwork indicating Hatcher/Qantas intends on sending the parcel.
Should receive it tomorrow, Thursday at the latest :)
 
Upgrade vouchers? So you are joining BA then! :D

Or retreating to Avianca, who give me 4 a year (for any flight/flight combo), or Latam, who have unlimited space-available upgrades.... Grrrrrr

Today I got the email of champas (or whatever) on its way. Wins me a few seconds peace with my wife - also invaluable :)
 
Just on MyPost... even after I received the email notification from them the item didn't actually appear under MyPost till I added it manually. LOL!

anyway.... I feel much more happy and secure it's with Aussie Post (and there's a laugh says most Australian consumers!)
 
Sennheiser Noise canceling headphones arrived this morning in the post.
Was expecting some bubbles, but much happier with these. Still have last years gift put away for a rainy day.
Thanks QF P1 Team.

You must be a more special P1 than others on here :D:D:D
 
In the past the 'alternative' gift has been for those deemed by Qantas to require a lower value gift - such as Govt employees. I've had this before (a lower value champagne, and last year a travel wallet which I too was actually very happy with and have used a lot this year).

I wouldn't think so. Actually not as much flying this year, so I may be at the bottom of the ladder. Will make P1 next year after going back to WP in Jan, so see what happens.

I would expect that is the case with me this year. Although $300 NC headphones will get used a whole lot more than Champagne. I am very grateful for them.

Out of interest, did the envelope for your card have an L(insert number) printed next to your FF number?
