    QF76 29 September - when your business class flight arrives at the Qantas Freight terminal

    Has Anyone Loaned $$ on Kiva?

    Mine stats are similar on a larger number of loans. Slightly higher default rate as I accepted some higher risk loans that I felt were worthy recipients of being funded.

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    Thanks for the detailed comparison. In terms of free upgrades I've gotten most from sq as pps Solitaire, with a reasonably high rate, few with nz as elite (all a long time ago), and least with qf as p1 (just 1 free so far).

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?
