Re: Best Status Run Options - A quick overview! Thanks for the Double SC offer - it's sure a ncice feeling to see those extra 260 SC's appear on your activity statement - did the travel on a JASA on Saturday and the double SC's just posted to my account now - Platinum here I come!

Yes - that's the one - I suspect the ASA lounge would be on a par with the ASP one :)

Enjoying my first ever status run today - Syd-Mel-Asa-Syd-Bris-Syd as a JASA sitting in the ASA lounge now - 5 minutes til the bar opens and managed to snaffle a couple of power points to recharge my phone and iPad (they're in short supply in the ASA lounge) All going well so far - good service...

Re: First status run kicking off soon. Qantas lady thought I was playing a joke on he See you on the ASA-Syd leg I suspect - I'm doing a status run on Saturday - SYD-MEL-ASA-SYD-BRIS-SYD so I think we'll share at least one flight. You're doing it in J class aren't you?

Depends how much time you want to spend travelling and what class you're interested in If you want to do it all in one day I found the Syd-Mel-ASA-Syd-Bris-Syd can be done in one day with a 6am departure and arrival back in Syd at 10pm - that generates 520 SC's after the double up offer

Re: 12E or 16A on the A380 Thanks everyone for your words of wisdom - I had a similar choice to make and had been opting towards 16A but have now locked in 13A Much appreciated

Re: First status run kicking off soon. Qantas lady thought I was playing a joke on he Look I agree it should not have happened and that the FA's should have spotted it but I didn't realise there was a dress code for Business Class? - so as I'm doing my status run to ASA next weekend which of...

Re: Qantas Double Status Credits... In reality it seems to take 2-3 days for the bonus SC's to come through - but the Q offiical position is that it can take up to 6 weeks The booking needs to be initiaited after the date the offer applies from - I got caught out by a booking made beforehand...

Re: Best Status Run Options - A quick overview! Glad to hear you got the offer and can register I got the same "reminder" email today - Thank you for registering to earn double Status credits^ and booking an eligible* Qantas flight The bonus SC's take 2-3 business days to come through I've...

Re: Best Status Run Options - A quick overview! Glad you broke it to him - I didn't want to be have to be the bearer of bad news... Double SC's rock - as long as you are one of the people who got offered them (and there seems to be a lot at the moment) - certainly makes status runs even more...

Re: Best Status Run Options - A quick overview! For Syd-Mel-AliceSprings-Syd JASA it was 72,000 points and $125.87

Re: Best Status Run Options - A quick overview! Indeed I am - see you in the lounge... Fortunately I am coming in from Melb QF796 so I wont have the staff asking me why I came in on the earlier flight ex Sydney Bring on the champers...

Re: Best Status Run Options - A quick overview! Same here - they are really pushing it - if their system had any intelligence it would see I have flown some legs already and have a couple of trips booked already, that will take me to WP thanks to the double SC offer. Not sure what else they...

Re: Best Status Run Options - A quick overview! I might see you on one of those flights - I am doing a JASA on Syd-Mel-ASP-Syd-Bris-Syd on Saturday 2 June - wonder if any flights coincide :)

Great - I've used the Double SC offer to qualify for WP for the first time - had to do a couple of status runs but nothing quite so bold as yours. My "one dayer" is a 6am Depart Syd-Mel-Alice Springs-Syd-Bris-Syd returing at 10pm in J class for 520 SC's, then I'm doing a Syd-Sing-Syd in J Class...

Good effort So whats the end game target? - WP?

Re: Qantas trials last-minute ‘at the gate’ upgrades for frequent flyers Existing thread on this already @ open-discussion/qantas-to-offer-gate-upgrades

Very happy with my double status offer from Qantas - couldn't have come at a better time Here's my story - and how I've taken advantage of the unexpected offer Things weren't looking good for me in March with 0 SC's and an August renewal The email offer arrived just a little late (4 April) so...

I got the double SC offer and managed to get a few bonus flights in by the end of June. I arrived home today from a trip to the US on Qantas to a pleasant surprise - a nice letter from Norris at Qantas advising that they had confirmed my Gold status for next year already approx 6 weeks out...

Travelled on the QF12 A380 flight ex LAX in economy today and have to say the finish quality on it left a lot to be desired. The white plastic covering on the interior is peeling in toilets and there's quite a few scrapes on bulkheads from trolley's hitting them. The sinks in two of the toilets...
