Aquire 50% extra Status Credits and double Aquire points offer

[chickentalon]

No SCs for me yet.

Bonus points have just been credited to the Aquire account for all flights made before March.

Interesting to know which year they credit the bonus SCs.
My year starts on 1 March, wonder if the SCs will be credited to the flight dates, the booking dates (unlikely) or will be credited to the date that they get around to it (most likely). I'll be almost half way to retaining w@ank, within the first 20 days of my year, for just $4,000 worth of flights. Easy.

Have a business partner who is 15 SCs off his first w@ank with a 1 April starting year, hopefully he's credited before then. Save him a status run.

SC will apply to the date of the flight so they will post then expire given you've started your new year.

Ahh ok thanks for clarifying. All good, flights were this status year. Only if the SCs come on booking date would it be a problem.

Just received a normal status credits bonus. I just wanna fly.

Exactly how many flights is one able to book with this offer? Is it just one? Or multiple ?

No limit as long as travel is within the stated period.

And it is no longer "is one able to book" as the booking window has now been and gone

Yes, thank you. I kinda worked that out

 

[Pushka]

Yes, thank you. I kinda worked that out

Unless you get another Qantas direct offer like I just did.

Excellent, my post was not intended to suggest otherwise - I apologise if could have been worded better

Mrs GPH received said offer, and it this time used the words "not a one off offer". To her this implied that the last one was a one off I.e. Good for one flight only. Hence the query. She has made a number of "strategic" bookings designed to ensure she retains WP this year, if the offer refers to one flight booking only, she has no chance of re-qualifying platinum. This would mean disappointment all round as the flights are status runs .
Anyway, the esteemed AFF community have allayed that fear......I hope

I had a second lot of bonus aquire points hit my account yesterday :shock: I've never had them post in a week before.

Surprising how long 8 weeks takes to pass when we're sitting watching the clock!

Are we there yet?

So still no bonus SC's for anyone??

I have quite a few flights coming up so fingers crossed they can sort it out soon.

I'm not yet sure there is anything to sort out. Has the 8 weeks expired for anyone yet?

The offer came out Jan 27. 8 Weeks from Jan 28 is Mar 23. Still another week to go at a minimum.

How will Qantas rationalise this when someone's SC counter resets a day or so after flights booked through this offer are flown and those SC are needed to maintain or even upgrade to a higher FF level? Surely they wont hold open someone's status for 8 weeks after renewal date? But they will have to.
