Choose your preferred membership card - there is no choice?

What's the point of this... Qantas asks me to choose something where there is actually no choice.

Irony?

The final nail was removing the MasterCard function. That was the only excuse to require a physical card.

Once they all expire they’ll be gone for everyone.

I am hoping to get my lifetime gold card next year, Qantas better have it as an option.
Such a cheap marketing option and they getting rid of it.

That's interesting... I attained for plat for the first time a few weeks ago but it showed the option to get a physical card.

Same happened to me back in August when I claimed my new luggage tag.

One should still be able to request a physical card separately I've been meaning to try this.

Disagree, last year on my OWA my status wasn't showing on my BA and Finnair boarding passes. Having my physical WP card was a lifesaver wrt getting into the First rather than J lounges.

Digital is fine flying QF, but nice to have physical card when flying partners os when there are glitches as I experienced.

I certainly want a physically LTG card when I get there.

I suspect you will still be able to get a physical card but have to pay points for the privilege.

There's still an option to request a physical card within your QFF profile page

I agree, I much prefer the physical card, but you can show your digital QF card either through the app or Apple wallet. That carries the same weight with most airlines. I want to keep my physical card but I can see the writing on the wall.

I didn’t know LTG cards were a thing - I guess you don’t get them while you’re platinum? I have LTG on my digital card.
