Here are my stats for QF for the year:

1. retained Platinum
2. retained Points Club
3. 20 flights on QF metal
4. 62,000 km
5. 15 domestic and 5 international flights
6. flew most often to SYD (not a real flight from CBR!)
7. earnt 303k points, and for the first time in a long time spent more points than I earnt - looking at you Classic Reward Plus tickets to the wedding in South Africa next year and the total failure of QF to sell me a paid ticket for these flights during the August DSC. Classic Reward Plus taken in desperation as I needed to book
8. top 5% of flyers and top 5% of points earners - sounds about right to me.
9. for the first time ever, my QBR yielded a bit of benefit.

Where did you get the QBR breakdown statistics from?

It was included at the bottom of the email with my personal stats.

Mine, I traveled most on a Dash 8, yay….

Current theory based on data points so far:

• 340K+ points earn is 1%
• 200K+ points earn is 5%
• 80K+ km is 1%
• 45K+ km is 5%

Shows that the variance in distance travelled is greater than points earned, which I would not have expected to see

That could be about right. I manually tallied up my calendar year (not member year earn), and it was 400k+ (in part thanks to a monster haul of QF Hotel points plus usual Banking and Flying points etc).

I knocked over PC again in 5mths this member year (half the time I usually get there). But not sure if I’ll get to PC+ by July 2026.

I'd say you're pretty close to the money, but I earned 340663 points and was only top 5% so the 1% club must start somewhere between 350k and 390k...

That's a handy data point, thanks for that. In post #14 @SYD mentioned getting 1% earner but not attaining PC+ so I had it just under 350K. The next data point after that being 392K at 1%.

There were two major flaws in my logic now that you mention it. PC+ has eligibility rules for points ie 20K max for flying which I did not take into account, and the activity is based on calendar year and not status year, so it's entirely possible it is greater than 350K for 1%.

Will watch out for anything between 341K to 391K to refine it further
