SYD - JNB Business Class but SA flight number....

[Foxxy]

Hi All,

Have done some searching but still not 100% sure what entitlements I will get on this flight. Looking for some advice.

I am QFF WP and next week I will be heading to Johannesburg in J class. The issue is, my client has booked the flights from their end, so I am flying under the SA flight numbers. Am I still able to access the 'F' lounge in Sydney being WP and flying 'J'?

Also, at OR Tambo, which loung will I have access to?

I dont believe I will get SC's either, but will I still get any QFF points?

Wish I had been able to book the tickets through QANTAS, but they are paying afterall

Cheers.

Travelling on an SA flight number means you will have a 'class of service' based access to lounges and benefits. This means biz class lounges in both SYD and JNB as designated by SA (which I presume is the QF lounge anyway in SYD?)

For status based entry to the F lounges you would have had to have been travelling with your next flt on Qantas, jetstar or oneworld.

You will earn points travelling on an SA flight number (operated by either SA or QF) on flights from Sth Africa to Australia. No status credits.
