    One World Sapphire Status for $199 USD? equivalent to QF Gold

    If you have been Diamond for 3 years or more and have stayed over 250 nights you may be able to apply for a free one year extension. I think you can only apply once. https://www.hiltonhonors.com/en_US/diamond-status-extension/landing

    One World Sapphire Status for $199 USD? equivalent to QF Gold

    I'm currently based in the UK, and applied for this as I'm shortly due to lose QF status due to being unable to do 4 QF flights easily. It used to be possible to get them from London to Dubai on QF or a codeshare on Emirates, but now I think the closest option is London to Singapore and maybe...

    Qantas surveying members about spend-based status attainment

    From 1 April 2025 British Airways are moving to a revenue model for earning status. https://www.britishairways.com/content/executive-club/faqs/introducing-the-british-airways-club British Airways Tier Points model is currently very similar to Qantas Status Credits. Unfortunately, I wouldn't...

    Qantas Points Cracker promotion

    I would be very surprised if it wasn't random. I think the figures are probably skewed as 59 is a very small sample, and also perhaps as a lot of people on this site are interested in status credits they are more likely to post about winning the 10 SC than if they only won 100 points.

    Qantas Points Cracker promotion

    I got the 100 points, and these have posted already. I'm somewhat jealous of everyone seeming to get the 10 SC. I would happily swap 10000 points for 10SC if only Qantas gave that option!

    Thank you whoever it was who just used my code. I was hoping to win the 10 SC, but got 100 points.

    1 Status Credit for Every 5000 Points Transferred to Qantas

    I got that offer maybe 3/4 years ago, and transferred around 50000 Amex points to earn around 10 status credits. Unfortunately I haven't got an email this time, as I would happily do the same again. I know it is only a small number of status credits, but every status credits helps towards the...

    Qantas Green frequent flyer tier

    My points for the fly carbon neutral, the green leaf and option to select the green reward all appeared today about 4 weeks after purchasing the flight and offset. I didn't chase up in anyway, it just appeared on its own, so unless you need it urgently it might be worth just waiting for now.

    Qantas Green frequent flyer tier

    Paid in cash and the amount paid was over $2. I haven't as yet received any points for the offset on my activity statement.

    Qantas Green frequent flyer tier

    I booked a classic reward flight about two weeks for next year and purchased the offset at the same time as booking. So far I haven't received the green leaf. I do wonder if I've just been unlucky, or if they have made a recent change e.g. to now only post when the flight is taken, or to...

    Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options

    I would expect any double SC promo to be restricted to QF flights (or perhaps also flights sold as a QF codeshare), so I think you are unlikely to get double SC on these BA/AA flights. If it is a route you want to travel 700SC for $2500 still seems like a good deal anyway though.

    QFF Status run Europe

    Prague I think is just under the distance so would only be 80 SCs but is a great destination and you can often get hotels at a good price. I recall a few years ago seeing a fare at under £200 return on IB from LGW to BCN via MAD (similar to a route you have suggested above) which would have...

    QFF Status run Europe

    This used to be a great way of getting the 4 QF coded flight if based in Europe, but unfortunately I don't think it is possible anymore to get an Emirates flight from Europe terminating in Dubai under a QF code. I think this option seemed to disappear about a year or so after QF stopped serving...

    Who else has to regularly chase up Qantas for points & status credits owed....

    I know if you upgrade a paid BA flight with cash from economy to business you get the business class tier points and avios when you credit to BA Executive Club, but from what I recall when crediting a BA flight to most other Oneworld frequent flyer programmes (which I have always assumed...

    Qantas apologises to frequent flyers with status extensions, lounge passes, points & more reward seats

    I'll make it a sample size of three - I didn't get the email either. Whilst it did make reference to the $50, there was nothing obvious that I could see in the T&Cs to exclude overseas members from the points offers or status extension. From what I recall in an earlier extension emails went...

    Who else has to regularly chase up Qantas for points & status credits owed....

    The android BA app allows screenshots. I take a screenshot everytime just in case there is a problem with app loading when I'm at the boarding gate (although it has never happened), and also in case I need it as hasn't credited automatically to my Qantas account (which has happened often)...

    QF Top Up Points / Points Subscription survey (New)

    That would be interesting if they did something like this. If the status credits counted towards lifetime status I would definitely subscribe at $800 for 400SC. At $1000 for 200SC it would be more marginal, but probably would just about subscribe. If there was no status credit element and the...

    Qatar or Emirates as QFF for Sydney - Europe Business Class?

    If I was that close to Lifetime Gold I would definitely be choosing Emirates to get the extra SC.
