Good point. Nice one, thanks, the sense check is always helpful.

Eco hotels - will the stay qualify for Green tier still if a voucher is used to part-pay (e.g. the PC+ $100)?

My OH dropped to bronze this year and received same day as I did (she is Bronze PC+).

Yeah mate definitely, P1 is still a step above LTP, so if you achieve the SC earn you'll be upgraded.

It counts towards P1.

Good that they arrived in decent time anyway - doesn't seem to be any logic to it that I can see, but I'm sure someone at QF has some reasoning somewhere!

No, my year end is February, the SC landed on 3/9, dated 1/9 (same for P2, who is a January year end).

Same boat - the counter indicates that the 150 I was gifted counts towards LT (i.e. the total showing is 100 less than my current count, which is the 100 rollover for PC+). However, the "Already Earned" is now 150 less than it was before (I also keep a record of these offline).

Now you mention it I was actually more annoyed the FW thing than the data breach, absurd as that is from a personal POV. But it was an expected outcome, it was only the fine being announced that brought it back into my memory. As for the data breach, for better or worse I was (as many of us...

That would be good, do you have any source re this for sure? QF127 would count, but being sold as AY5006 means it definitely won't. No, you'd have to canx and rebook entirely.

If that were the case, why not just move the bar though? I agree it'll have limited effect (imo) on limiting LTPs who weren't going to get there anyway, as the bar is very high, but LTS/LTG is low in comparison (not too low, it's still a lot of flying for all but those who aren't doing it...

There has been three in one year, 2019 I think it was...I do agree with you though. The thing is, this isn't unique to QF (although QF are aggressive with it). I really hope we don't end up on a revenue based earn too soon, although I think that eventually it'll happen (maybe me saying it will...

I'm not doubting that, but whichever way you spin it, the PR on their antics isn't good, so anything positive they can spin helps. At the end of the day, a lot of people use QF out of either a lack of options or being bonded to QFF (as most of us are in one way for better or worse, hence why...

Agree, but with so many other airlines ruining their loyalty programs (BA was a very good program for lifetime Emerald, attracting a lot of US and European flyers, until their recent move to revenue), this could be a heap worse. I would be around 18 months from LTG at current average earn rate...

Sadly, I see it as very unlikely this would be a random, one-off, I suspect that from now DSC will no longer count toward LT (just as DSC hasn't applied to QF coded flights on partner metal since 2017, other than the AY codeshares SYD-SIN/BKK, which are for all intents and purposes QF flights)...

Yeah, no email here, but the confirmation turned up straight away when registering, and all the details show in the app.

Prob the whole $90M fine for violating FW rules...that sort of thing doesn't do them any PR favours either. I suspect the whole thing is to increase revenue and to brush any negative publicity under the carpet. Anyone on the status train will book regardless, this brings forward potentially a...

Nope, always counted towards lifetime until now. Even the 600 SC given in 2021 for pandemania counted towards lifetime (the 500 rollover in 2022/23 didn't count). I remember in 2020 (? whenever BP joined up with QF), they tried to exclude the 50SC from that from lifetime, but there was the...

From past experience, yes you'll still get them, any booking avenue on QF metal/QF code booked within the DSC booking window and flown within the DSC flying window will earn.

In my experience (had DSC flights from the last round flown last month) it's within a couple of days of the flight. Even if they don't, they count from the date flown, so even if they're late, they still count towards your current year.
