Did I book this flight during the double status credit offer?

[Lynnelanne]

hi all. I need to change a Qantas flight and I can't recall which i booked during the double status credits offer. Does anyone know if there is any way of identifying which flights were double SC's? thank you..

No.

However just look at your eticket receipt. You kept that, right?

At any rate if you change it, and it is still prior to Feb 14th next year then any DSC owed will still apply.

Nothing on the actual ticket will indicate it.

The only way to tell is
1) your last registration email for the DSC (for this year search "twice as rewarding"). This just confirms that you registered. If you flip flopped between points and status, the last one will be the one applicable

2) when your flight was booked - if it was during the DSC promo perios.

3) will you be taking the flight during the period (aka before Feb 14, 2025.

yes i did, but it's not on there is it?

I believe you can call QFF and ask re DSC eligibility. At the very least calling Res can confirm the booking date for you.

Thank you.

1. No, no flip flopping. Was definitely SC's.
2. Any idea what those dates were?
3: yes, definitely.

thanks for your time and effort.

Well the eticket gives issue date, however a booking may have been tucketed after the eligible booking period, but still eligible due to booking date as opposed to ticketing date.

Probably easiest to call QF and ask them for the booking date.

Again though, it will not matter unless changes made take flight dates outside of the promotion period and/or not on QF metal to be eligible for DSC.

The flight booking period was Feb 21st to Feb 27th, 2024.

OK, thank you. I have a few flights booked and one of them is to be cancelled, not changed, so tht's why I need to be sure. Cheersn

Well, with respect, in the OP, you ysed the wording "need to change."

And well, if you need to cancel, then you need to cancel.

Noting a cancel to a flight credit should retain any DSC with it if used to book eligibme QF flights.

I think the OP is saying they had several flights booked, now need to cancel one, so making sure they cancel the NON DSC one. Anyway, that's how I read it.

That's exactly what I meant. Sorry that I could have been more precise.

If you can't be bothered calling QF and you want to find the PNR creation date (which is what matters for DSC) you can enter the booking reference and last name into My Booking on the Malaysia Airlines website. It will show up under "Date of issue" up the top of the page. Just make sure that date is within the booking period mentioned above.

Also I just tested this out with a booking that has had multiple ticket reissues and can confirm it's displaying the date that the PNR was created rather than the date the ticket was issued.

Thank you so much for that, it's really useful.

 

[RichardMEL]

The date of issue is also in the QF eticket receipt

 

[dylarr]

The date of issue is also in the QF eticket receipt

For the date the ticket was issued yes, but not the PNR create date.

I just got an updated e-ticket receipt due to schedule change today and the e-ticket receipt has the date the ticket was issued but the PNR was created months before that.

 

[RichardMEL]

For the date the ticket was issued yes, but not the PNR create date.

Well I also looked at recent reissues, and it remained the same as noted above.

I agree it's hard to know if it's the original ticketing date as opposed to PNR creation, but believe it is the same field being pulled by MH MNB

Ah OK. I'm guessing this is because your tickets were revalidated rather than being reissued. Did you get new ticket numbers? If so, the e-ticket receipt should display a new date. If the tickets were simply revalidated then the ticket number wouldn't have changed and the new e-ticket receipt will continue to show the original issue date.

 

[RichardMEL]

Fair point that.

 

[CaptJCool]

on the e-Ticket itself, there are two dates
the date of Issue - which I have not ever had more than a day or two out from the day I actually booked
the date of payment - and the credit card one might have used to pay for which one might have a monthly statement or the very least an online portal to check the date logged by the CC company

Now, while this isn't QF internal system (which may have several dates logged on a ticket (including PNR creation date, payment date, ticket issue date and perhaps a couple of others (especially if there's subsequent changes - lets not get started on GV's or FCs or TravelPasses etc etc etc) the question was about a relative "cleanskin" situation/

if that's the case, knowing the dates of the campaign, and as long as registration occurred, then if one of the various dates falls within those dates, then you'd like be able to deduce DSC or otherwise.
