Double points on select QF Christmas Livery flights - Xmas 2023

[chrispy3276]

An interesting tidbit from QF's latest e-mail update, those flying on Christmas branded Dash-8 ("Dasher") or B737 Christmas branded aircraft may get double points on their flights these holidays. No other details/T&C's provided, but potentially a nice little bonus for some...

(Though I reckon the updated happy hour already posted about is of more interest to this group )

Nothing for those with Dash-ed hopes

Introducing Dasher 8 and Roo-dolph (737). If you fly on these in December, you get double points.

They’re playing carols for the boarding music. @kangarooflyer88 will be stoked!

Cute Christmas branding and even cuter names.

How annoying.
It's mind crushing enough having to listen to that trash on high rotation at work for an entire month.

The logic of giving double points but only when flying on certain tail numbers sounds pretty complex for Qantas IT. Wouldn't be surprised if you have to chase up these points

I laughed but it's true.

it's a fun little idea in terms of spreading essentially random "joy" (well if DP brings joy that is) for pax. I suspect the odds are far more skewed for the regional dashers of course - given the large number of 737's in service and only one of them apparently so adorned.

VH-QON (A Dash 8 Q400) has just emerged with some Christmas stickers so I suspect this promo might be about to make it's return.

I just boarded VH-QON bound for CBR. Will let you all know if I get an extra surprise bonus in my account!

Ahh I saw this land yesterday and was wondering what a Dash-8 was doing with some random red stuff under the fuselage. All makes sense now!
