Hey,

As I think we're all aware it's possible to earn Accor points on QF flights (and QF points on Accor stays). However, QF isn't the only airline with such a partnership, indeed Air France/KLMs Flying Blue has a similar arrangement. My question is whether it's possible to sign up/link these various airline programs together so I can maximize the airline and hotel points? For instance, if I were to stay at say the Pullman Sydney Airport could I nab QF and Flying Blue points?

Just a thought, and apologies if this has been discussed prior.

Cheers,

No. Only one at a time. I had the AF/KL when it first started. Took months to disconnect and sign up for QF.

I think the AF one is better if that provides value to you.

I haven't studied the AF program in terms of redemptions but so far as I can tell for earning status DL seems to be the best bet given status qualification is purely based on miles flown, award flights earn milage and that lifetime status is computed based on flights taken not only with Delta but other SkyTeam partners.

Yes, as far as ST FF programs go.

My comment above was the relative merit of ALL Accor + FB v QFF. Both give a few trinkets for basically no additional cost but if someone is already a Flying Blue member and QFF, they might get a little more benefit staying with ALL + FB. I switched because I only ever had a token amount of FB miles and zero status.
