Hi All,
I have a booking coming up in First Class for:
EK409 MEL-DXB F
QF8161 (EK161) DXB-DUB F
QF8162 (EK162) DUB-DXB F
EK406 DXB-MEL F

Would I be able to earn full Qantas Status Credit for the above flights? If not, would I be able to earn Skyward Tier Miles for the status?

The above flights are from the same PNR booked via an agent.

This is my first QF/EK flight and I am totally confused with the fine prints.

Thanks and regards,
Joey

You will earn QFF points on all sectors.
You will only earn SC's on the QF codeshare flights, eg:


EK409 MEL-DXB F - points
QF8161 (EK161) DXB-DUB F - points and SC
QF8162 (EK162) DUB-DXB F - points and SC
EK406 DXB-MEL F - points

If you can get the agent to rebook EK409/06 to QF8409/8406 you will max out the SC's ratther nicely :)

By rebooking EK409/06 to QF number, the ticket price will go up from 12K to 17K!! By booking QF8161/QF8162 to EK161/162, the ticket price is 15K. The whole codeshare thing arrangement EK/QF felt like bickering lovers for trying to collect status and points.
