I've flown a number of oneworld partner flights this year, the most recent being last week. They have all added to the lifetime total. I don't think the concern is that anything has changed yet, but that the wording might be reflecting a forthcoming change in the near future.. I don't think...

I think in oneworld Alaska have a similar restriction for their lifetime status in that I think only Alaska flights count. The prospect of achieving lifetime silver or gold are the only reason I credit to Qantas, as the points earnings on partner flights are very poor, and redemptions seem to...

Has anyone any experience of ordering from the Qantas Rewards Store from overseas? I'm based in the UK, and I'm assuming that they won't ship physical goods outside Australia. I looked at some of the digital giftcards, but the most useful to me i.e. Digital Mastercard/Visa or Card Network...

Sadly I wasn't able to take part in this offer as I'm in Europe and I didn't think BP would be willing to send me some fuel by mail order :) I have had a similar experience with the rollover though in that I had some flights which were taken in the last few days of my membership year but didn't...

No, I've not received mine either, probably is time to chase them up.

It is the same for me. The 20 status credits have been added but the wine is still in transit. Hopefully it will be delivered in the next few days.

As far as I understand it in Oneworld the airline operating the flight pays for the lounge visit rather than the frequent flyer program. In those circumstances I'm sure BA Executive Club would be happy for people to fly around Australia on QF as there would be no cost to BA. In fact there...

I wish Qantas would return to using DXB but unfortunately I don't think it is likely.

This was scheduled for mid-2021, but as it is sort of getting past that point now, hopefully there will be more news soon. I hope I'm wrong, but suspect when it does finally launch it might be rather underwhelming.

I have plenty of points but could do with more SC to go towards my lifetime total. Using points to earn SC from rewards flights is a much better deal, but as I'm based in Europe unfortunately this is not an option for me. I think Qantas Wine will only deliver to Australia, but I must look at...

That pretty much mirrors my experience. If something doesn't credit automatically it is always a painful experience as I have to go back to Qantas multiple times by email before they eventually credit whilst they go through a range of inaccurate responses - such as "ineligible booking class"...

As I'm based overseas I'm sure this offer won't be available to me, but if it was I'd take the 15 SC like a shot. With reduced flying at the moment SC are hard to come by, but I can still earn points via credit card spend etc. If a straight swap was offered I'd happily exchange 5,000 points or...

As far as I understand it in Oneworld the airline operating the flight pays for the lounge visit. So if an overseas member was using Qantas Status whilst for example flying with British Airways, then British Airways would have to pay for the lounge visit, as well as paying Qantas for the Qantas...

As I'm based in Europe, Qantas Points are of very little interest or value to me at the moment with little prospect of getting to Australia anytime soon, so I'll not go out of my way to collect them. Anything involving being able to add a few status credits to my lifetime total would be a lot...

I doubt they would get away with being so blatant, as if they did that they would reap the cash benefits whilst other OW airlines could pick up the cost, as the operating airline (rather than the Frequent Flyer scheme) pays for lounge access etc as far as I recall in OW. QF probably could be a...

Qantas Shopping includes stores that can be purchased from for worldwide delivery such as Ebay, so purchasing something at even a dollar would earn a Qantas Point, and should keep the account active. It does seem to take about three months or so for the Qantas Points to credit, so you need to...

"Bonus Status Credits will not contribute towards any Platinum or Platinum One Bonus Rewards, Loyalty Bonuses, Lifetime status and any Qantas Status Accelerator". It looks like these Bonus Status Credits don't count towards Lifetime Status. As I'm in Europe, I wouldn't be able to earn these...

There seems to be an offer now to renew Qantas Club membership that earns bonus status credits. 1 Year Membership renewal for 52,000 points earns 50 Status Credits 2 Year Membership renewal for 102,000 points earns 100 Status Credits...

There seems to be some sort of offer at the moment where you can buy Qantas Club membership with Qantas Points and get up to 100 bonus Status Credits, so in effect converting points to Status Credits. 1 Year Membership for 74,000 points earns 50 Status Credits 2 Year Membership for 136,000...

Finnair do something like this with their programme. Their award points can be converted to tier points (their equivalent to status credits). From what I recall they have a limit to what you can convert of I think 50% of the amount required to retain status or move up to the next level. I...
