Qantas Points Club Plus – Status Credits on Malaysia Airlines Classic Reward Flights

[esseeeayeenn]

Have fun arguing semantics with Manila

First I don't call call centres, never mind argue with them.
If I wanted to dispute this I'd go straight to the ACCC.
However this isn't my issue, I was just agreeing that the QF terms are misleading.
On any ordinary interpretation, a ticket you can ONLY book on the QF website, by paying in QFF points, should count as "QF marketed".
This is beyond argument.

Second, someone pointed out that partner CRs always carry the partner airline flight number.
And argued that this means they are always partner marketed.
But this would conflate "operated" and "marketed".
Which are clearly used to mean different things.

Third, I just vote with my wallet.
Last year I did the bare minimum on QF metal to earn my four squiggles.
Then spent the rest with other OWE airlines.

In 2025 after I retained WP I splashed out on first class flights with EY including one sector in the Residence.
I know my $75,000 annual flight spend (more like $100,000 in 2025 thanks to the Residence) is a mere drop in the ocean, but it's still lost revenue.

Just because you say something is beyond argument, doesn't make it so.

Clearly many people here don't share your view.

Likewise you don't agree with them and evidently nothing will change that.

It will remain unresolved for forever and a day.

I can only suggest you read my signature.
