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?
 
For those of you who got the fast track ALL Platinum offer, any thoughts on the welcome gift (wireless earphones) - quality, function, etc?

The felt wallet which the headphones come in is the perfect size for a passport protector!
 
I didn't get any mention about a scarf! Funny because the scarf is probably a better gift 😂
Maybe non fast track members get the scarf.
 
On the status page in the ALL app at the bottom of the page under "Move up more quickly" heading it says "New Fast Track available after 31/12/22". So looks like another "1-night challenge" to secure Platinum for 2024.
I don't seem to have this.
 
I qualled for P1 for the first time about 2 weeks ago. Pack with card/bag tags/oddly monogrammed pleather document wallet/laptop case arrived in the mail today. I also got an AusPost notification from Qantas Wine, but thought perhaps it was a qualification gift or premium wine membership related thing. 🤷‍♂️

I didn't receive a notification or email of any sort, but this morning I logged into the Australia Post account I setup years ago and noticed that there is a pending shipment from Qantas Wine listed in there.
What a good suggestion, I also had an Ausi Post account that was set up years ago and was able to log in. Sure enough there was a line item on its way from QF wines, I make the occasional purchase from QF wines and the recent purchases have been delivered. I also received a message from Ausi Post this afternoon saying a package is on they way.

On a lighter note I would have preferred if the message was from Sendle, Couriers Now or whatever courier QF used in the past. In the years past I would wait in anticipation to hear about the annual delima that @RichardMEL seemed to go through ;):p:p when it came to QF deliveries.

Sendle!!@ oh god, I was trying to remember that accursed name and couldn't.

I shall have nightmares now, but thanks for the reminder Matt! :D

I don't have an AP account setup, though I do have the app. I might as well set one up and see if any joy. good tip!

... et Voila! Created AP account and it's there created yesterday but not yet picked up by AP. :D
 
No email, but I reset my password for auspost.com.au - don't recall setting up an account but have had many deliveries using my email address.
I can see the Qantas Wine delivery :D
Put in an order through them recently and that is also showing - both not dispatched yet.
 
Have received the email and expected delivery today...looking forward to sipping some Grant Burge this evening 😁
Hope you have a stopper so you can enjoy some today, and some another time. I'd bet you can enjoy the flavour even more once it loses it's bead... :D
