Qatar Frequent Flyer vs Velocity Virgin Australia

[L19MudMan]

Hey, just after some information what way I am best to try do this.
I am currently 180 status credits from Velocity Platinum.

I am flying Perth-Doha-Manchester return every month but I have been booking through Virgin due to my Gold status so I get the Gold perks.

However, I want to try get Qatar Q Points and attain Gold with them. Is there anyway I can continue to book with Virgin Australia but claim Qatar Q-Points?

If you get what I mean so I don't lose the Gold perks but earn the Q Points at same time

I think you are better off just crediting it all to QR Privilege and getting Gold with them.
That gives you plenty of perks with VA and OW

Do you know if there is a way around it after I've flown as I want to tracked on gold but credit the QR FF

By "booking through Virgin" [what ever that means] do you have VA flight number PER-DOH? For DOH-MAN VA or QR flight number?
Gold on different airline frequent flyer programs is not always the same. Qatar Airways - oneworld Member Airline

• QR silver (oneworld ruby) [same as QF silver)
• QR gold (oneworld sapphire) [same as QF gold). Comes with lounge access. Usually has lounge access. but QR does at time sell tickets without lounge access
• QR Platinum (oneworld emerald) [same as QF platinum). Addiontional benfits for OWE

What do you mean by "want to tracked on gold"?
You cannot double dip.

You may get far better pricing MAN-DOH-PER-DOH-MAN (ex UK) compared to PER-DOH-MAN-DOH-PER (ex AU). Get a oneway PER to MAN to start that cycle. Or a return with say 6-9 months out.(nested flights). But VA may not be able to sell ex UK with VA flight numbers. Will be a range of airlines ex UK.
