Qantas unveils the biggest changes to status in program history

Hopefully they clarify sometime in the next few months or so the actual dates for what is happening in 2026.

Hopefully they clarify sometime in the next few months or so the actual dates for what is happening in 2026.

My prediction is they’ll announce whatever changes (the Devil in the details stuff) on date X and there’ll be a rolling changeover based on FF year end date.

There’s going to be winners and losers, clutching of pearls, wailing and gnashing of teeth etc.

SYD+1 and I have over achieved on SCs this year with just short of ~2k ea for easy retention of WP, but with a 31 July anniversary, we won’t get to rollover any (other than 100 via PC+). But hopefully we’ll stay on the old requal threshold to July 2027.

I wouldn’t be surprised if we get the higher threshold starting Aug 2027 but rollover (if any) from July/August 2028…?

Also a 31 July FF year end, and because im in rare situation for me of being 500SCs over my WP re-qualification, you can just guarantee the roll-over wont start Aug 1st.

I tend to agree late 2026 means not before Q4 so i reckon no change until 1 Oct.
