    Additional Benefit on Velocity Earning Cards: 40K Points, 6 Months Gold or $300 Travel Bank

    I was wondering this too. I guess without having any clarity we need to assume and plan that you need to wait 4 months (and ideally meet the goal each month for 4 months). If you are able to get the full bonus quicker than 4 months, please let us know!

    Amex Travel Credit - covid implication

    Has anyone got any advice about booking a QF flight through the travel credit, vs booking directly via Qantas? In general - Which way is going to be the least risky in terms of customer service experience if my flights get cancelled, missed connections, or I need to make changes? Does booking it...

    Points Club - new bonuses and benefits!

    Me too. With covid, a young family, and no longer in a job with much travel... Ive lost my status. Qantas club membership in itself is not really worth chasing (esp with all the unused complimentary passes I have), but it's certainly a nice bonus for the card churning that I would be doing...

    Qantas Points Club Discussion

    What about the latest bonus offer for buying points? Do you think that counts towards points club? I couldn't see anything in the T&Cs.... But I'm not always good with reading fine print. I don't think it would be good value to buy points just to retain points club status, but it would be...

    How long to wait before churning again?

    What if they don't ask? Is it common for them just to run the algorithm and not crosscheck against your application? I've had applications in the past where they didn't ask anything, and others where they only asked about tweaking the income and expenses I just closed a couple of cards but...

    Qantas Dumps Economy Luggage in Darwin for London Flights

    The thing is, once it was clear that it would take more than a day or two for the same flight to take off from Darwin - why didn't they freight the bags? 6 days is pretty bad.

    What do you frequent flyers do for work?

    OK so election question - are politicians eligible to earn frequent flyer points and status from government salary? If so, how long do you think it takes the average pollie from Mel, SYD or bri flying to Canberra to rack up platinum? 🤔

    What do you frequent flyers do for work?

    Hi all, Not sure if there is already a thread on this... I am curious as to what people do for a living - what are all the different varied and interesting jobs that people do to earn frequent flyer status - and do you enjoy it? Personally I've been working in government project management for...

    Additional Benefit on Velocity Earning Cards: 40K Points, 6 Months Gold or $300 Travel Bank

    Looking at it again.. It appears that if you pick 6 months gold, then you need 80 status to retain... By my calculations that's 3 x SYD-Mel return flights in standard economy.... Is that right? Seems ridiculously easy....
