airline status

Hi all. Just wondering if anyone knows of a way I can earn the 5 extra status credits I need to retain silver? I’ve got until April. Will fly if necessary but for only 5 I hoped there might be something I don’t know about. I’m already with QF Insurance and BP. Credit cards already ‘Qantas’d.’...

Has anyone else received this email from Velocity? Double status credits at Coles this month (up to 20 VA status credits instead of the usual 10). Not sure if targeted or open to all. Incidentally, I received this email at exactly the same time as a confirmation email from Velocity saying...

Was wondering if anyone else has had issue with not yet receiving their 50 status credits from the BP 5x $50+ fuel deal? It has been over 8 weeks since I met the 5 times $50. As well as over 8 weeks since the earning period ended. Haven’t received my status credits and haven’t heard anything...

I haven't received any official communication from United yet, but if I log into the App my digital membership card now shows a January 2023 expiry date. I did not fly enough in 2021 to meet the usual qualification requirements (for very obvious reasons) so suspect it is a widespread status...

I was just having a read of this page on the Qantas website: https://www.qantas.com/au/en/frequent-flyer/status-and-clubs/status/membership-tier-journey.html I couldn't help noticing that the lifetime status requirements on that page state that you have to earn 7,000, 14,000 or 75,000 lifetime...

Finnair Plus is offering a status match to residents of Sweden until 2 November 2021. You would need to already have status with another airline headquartered in either Sweden, Norway or Denmark (which I think is basically just SAS?) and book a round-trip Finnair long-haul flight departing from...

Hi, I'm a Qantas points club member, and routinely take classic reward flights with Qantas. I'm wondering, if I book an award seat with Asia Miles, and a ticket is issued with a QF number, will I still earn SC?

First time visitor and poster, so if I have this wrong apologies. I am 90 Status Credit Points away from Lifetime Gold. Given COVID over last 18 months flying has basically stopped. So I am looking at alternate ways to gain status credit points. I came across BP spend $50 over 5 times in a...

Does anyone know if there is a way to create or request a reconcilation report over (say three) membership years showing how each line item Status Credit activity impacts Lifetime Status Credits, Earned This Year, Already Earned etc? I know the new Activity Statement shows some of this info in...

Air New Zealand has matched Qantas' status match offer for AU/NZ residents. Have Gold status (or higher) with Qantas, Virgin Australia, or any other airline except Cathay Pacific or another Star Alliance carrier? You can now get 4 months of Air New Zealand status, and earn 100 status points...

Hi, This is more a failure on my part but I just needed to rant a lil:p I'm a Qantas platinum member and tbh given the way Covid has been for my work, even with any points assistance it's going to be pretty difficult for me to maintain it. Still wanting to give it a red hot go, I was actually...

I have signed up for the QF status challenge and I also have QR Platinum status, is there a way I can use the free seat selection with my QR status but credit the flight to QF for the status challenge? I added the QF FF number on the booking and not surprisingly the system doesn't recognise that...

I must have been a Virgin Plat for 10 years or so. Partner ditto. Qantas have well-defined Lifetime status targets for Lifetime Gold and Plat etc. Most airlines do. I cannot recall ever seeing any Virgin equivalent - is there? I got Lifetime Star Alliance Gold for me and a partner many...

Did anyone else get their rolled over status credits removed on Tuesday evening, then returned on Wednesday morning? This appeared on my QFF activity statement as: STATUS SUPPORT - STATUS CREDIT ROLLOVER ERROR REVERSAL -250 Was fixed up on Wednesday and the 250 SCs restored. While I was...
