Total Newbie question here, so apologies in advance... I received a +50% SC offer on Friday for AU/NZ travel 25th Oct --> 31st Jan.

Is this a one-time-offer or can I book multiple (eligible) trips during that time period and still receive +50% SC ?

I've got a few points saved up and free time during this period for some SC runs to help get me SG by end of May 2014.

Thanks...

Normally, you can book as many flights as you lie within the qualifying period. As ever though, read the fine print carefully.
 
Re: Double Status Credits 2013

Tim, I got the same offer I think, was getting excited also but just saw small print "Any Seat Award bookings in
U class are ineligible for this offer. " so mASA are no value. :(

Can they apply this retrospectively ?
I suppose its QFs program they can do what they like ?

My DSC came in Aug valid until 30 Nov and was planning a JASA but after this I fear the worst :evil:

Re: Double Status Credits 2013

"Any Seat Award bookings in U class are ineligible for this offer"

That pretty much kills off a 2xSC/1.5xSC xASA run

This will affect quite a few people me thinks

Note a newer offer from last week is excluding the U bucket ASAs, hence the change and possible future trend.
 
Re: Double Status Credits 2013

The 50% bonus on 10 Oct and the DSC on 17 Oct. I think this change is only recent as well and only applies to the newest one which is for domestic and trans-tas flex fares, which excludes YASA's (X class) as well.

The two sentences that I have emphasised are contradicting each other ?
 
Re: Qantas excludes ASAs in U bucket from bonus SC promos (effective for new promos??

Not at all surprised that JASA's appear to have been removed from bonus SC's.
Nothing about QFF T&C's surprises me anymore, well maybe with the exception that they appear to have forgotten the P :rolleyes:
 
Re: Qantas excludes ASAs in U bucket from bonus SC promos (effective for new promos??

The two sentences that I have emphasised are contradicting each other ?

Not really, the first one is stating which fare classes are eligible to earn SC and points. The second is stating which fare classes is/isn't eligible for this promotion.

Not at all surprised that JASA's appear to have been removed from bonus SC's.

Pretty sure they would have if there was domestic or trans-tas P :p

Well this will put a dent in most people's ability to do a SC-run for WP. Probably not an entirely surprising development...
