[FONT=&amp]Are supplementary cardholders allowed to take up the free flight rather than the holder?[/FONT]

You can book the free flight in any name, whether they are a supplementary card holder or not.

50000 would only apply to new applicants, not someone upgrading.

Can't you cancel and sign up after a wee little while? Deadline isn't until 31st Dec.

If you eat out heaps, purchase high $$ value QF tickets and stay in heaps of hotels - maybe. However, you can do better than 7,500 QFF bonus........QFF site is offering 50,000.

'a wee little while' being 6 months I believe, before Amex consider you a new customer.

Looking at the T&Cs link at the bottom of this page it appears that it may have been extended out to 12 months:

1. The 50,000 Qantas Points offer is only available to new American Express Card members who apply by 31 December 2013 via the online application form, are approved and make the required eligible Card spend(s).

Cheers - didn't know that.

Lets hope that the OP has a partner that can tag themselves in. Mind you - the card isn't worth it unless your spend is high on certain categories - I've kept the card because ours is and we have a few other alternatives in the wallet to use when it's not.

Ta for that your advice.

I have meals at restaurants twice a week and travel overseas for 4-6 weeks a year so the upgrade is probably worth it.
