QF Double Status Credits February 2026 Promo

Assuming the flight number on the Alliance was a QF number? as in a QF flight operated in Alliance metal and not an Alliance number operated in Alliance metal?
Yes. QF.
I mentioned this earlier in the thread at some point.
 
I’ve got SYD-CBR-SYD from 3 weeks ago that the DSCs haven’t arrived either. I can’t recall which subsidiary flew it, but I’m not concerned - particularly when many comments seem to point to QANTASlink or other subsidiaries taking a bit of time.

Yeah, I've taken a bunch of QFLink flights booked as DSC and none have credited the DSC yet. All the mainline flights I've taken have already credited.

Patience as always from me hahaha
 
I need to change some double status fares booked for October. Potential to a completely new set of flights. Flex fares (H) return to Singapore.
I think I know that double SC will still count if I change a leg. But I might to do a whole new booking due to timing of qantas flights not matching my need to be in two places at the same time.
Any comments or advice on the best way to do this? Is a flight credit a good idea.?

I am getting a bit nervous now around such a quick turn around. Dont want to be stripped search :-)

Anyone does this recently?
😂
I did a status run to Bangkok once. Did a dodgy bypass of entry to Thailand and stayed airside over night.
Got pulled aside at the gate for questioning. The guy just looked at me and asked if I like to go flying. then waved me on...
You got no chance of a strip search...
😂
 
I've had three bookings so far that this promo applies to.

#1) March 14-15 SYD-MEL return
#2) March 20 SYD-BNE
#3) March 21 BNE-APY; March 29 APY-BNE-SYD

The DSC came through basically the next business day for all of the domestic legs (#1, #2, and the final sector of #3). Nothing on the international Brisbane<-->Apia legs though, even though they're the same booking. It's only been half a week and a week and a half respectively, but given the other ones were swift and automatic should I follow up manually on these ones?

Significant point is that I need those extra 40 credits to requalify as Platinum by April 30.

Makes for a lot less paperwork when you're self-deporting 😅
 
For those booked QFLink - I can confirm that DSCs have been posting consistently within 1-2 days from date of travel. Have had at least 4 QFL flights in this promo.

Whenever they post @sjfy they will be as date flown, not date in account.
So you should be OK to requailfy by end of April (if I had flights coming up in April/May I'd follow up in 2/52)
