Double Status Credits promotion (Book by 27/2/24, travel 28/2/24-14/2/25)

A reminder that those with PC or PC+ who redeem Classic Rewards during the booking period should get DSC for QF sectors.

definitely worked last time - scored SYD - SIN - LHR on QF1!

Even though the registration period opened 12.01am (AEDT)?

Referring to the UTC date which most servers run on - 11am in SYD is when the new UTC date starts (UTC+11 during DST).

I’m sure they fixed the glitch years ago but doesn’t cost much to wait just in case.

I have a SYD-LAX award in F... Wondering if it's worth the risk cancelling and rebooking via a request.

Not if there is no F available now I wouldn't.

oof, I've got a reward trip to DFW coming up this weekend... if only my trip were a few days later and not already booked!

Currently in the process of a multi leg, having completed 5 out of the 6 legs, booked in flexible economy, giving me 20SC.

Remaining leg is SIN - SYD for the 20th of March. If i were to cancel this, would we get a credit for the value remaining, or forfeit all costs.

If i were to cancel the remaining leg, and rebook with dollars (963SGD for 40 x 2 SC = 80 SC).

Is it really worth the 20 extra SC?

With the current plan before my points reset, i will either be:

1195 SC on current forecast of trips, or 1215 SC if i try for the extra 20. That leaves me the month of April and May to find the extra points with planning some trips.

Wonder if there's time to open a qf amex ultimate, get the card and use the credit... 6 days, post to WA might be pushing it

Ok I just registered. I only have three eligible paid flights so far this Qantas year.

I just tried to check what a good status run from Brisbane might be. Brisbane to Wellington is being advertised on the web site as return from $1284 for Dec-Jan 2024/2025. But when you go to book the sale fare, it ends up being $1517 and you can only get that by flying direct. Is this the end of status runs?

No, but you did need to pounce early on Sale fares. There can be very limited seats to start with and they can sell out quickly depending on the route - despite the headline price still being displayed on the website/app.

So who just booked a large multi-sector international itinerary? Who do we have to thank for triggering this?

I just booked PER-LHR return in J last week. You're all welcome.

Granted the flight over is on EK metal so I'm only missing out on the DSC for the return leg. Wouldn't have been enough to bump me up to WP regardless so I'm not too upset.

But they all count towards LT WP!

Another FAQ:

Yes, QFLink flights are eligible for DSC including Alliance E190s operating as QF flight numbers.

I’m passing on it.

Knowing that I’ll requal for Plat anyway by my Int’l flying for the rest of the year incl RTW, I’ve been taking advantage of the sales over the last month to book these.

Plus it shows the reward choice in the app, too. IT really got on board for this one

If one leg is done as a Classic Reward and the return leg is done as a revenue fare in the same booking will that cause any issues when the status credits are awarded? Or will those legs need to be booked separately to trigger the PC SCs correctly?

I made a booking this morning for a domestic trip we already had planned with the above combination. In my QFF activity summary it notes “combined classic reward & points plus pay”, but I didn’t use any points beyond the Classic Reward.

It’s probably a silly question, just had a moment of anxiety thinking I’d messed it up.

No issue. Each leg will be assessed per its booking class and awarded SC and then DSC as appropriate. No need to separate.
