Earning QF status credits with Finnair

[Princess Fiona]

Not sure if this is the right thread, however, when it comes up, do you earn DSCs on the Finnair operated flights (eg QF295, QF291) to BKK and SIN?

Yes you do

Ok another puzzle, if I’m booked on a AY codeshare with JQ (or QF) the operating carrier MEL/SIN - do I get the normal QF earn rate?

Edit: Ugh JQ would complicate this question right?

Don’t suppose anyone knows the answer to this one?

If it’s AY marketed and QF operated, you’ll earn points and status credits at the (reduced) partner rate.

If AY marketed and operated by JQ, I’m not sure you’d earn anything in QFF. Certainly no status credits as JQ is not in oneworld.

Hi all, my partner and I have booked a return flight to Helsinki via Singapore with Finnair,
A question if I may, as I've been scratching my head ever since at how this the earning potential works. These are the figures taken from the Qantas booking page.

Our Flight Itinerary for the initial trip over.

MEL > SIN - Will earn 15 Status Credits and 2000 Frequent Flyer Points CLASS L (Economy)
SIN > HEL Will earn 6300 Frequently flyer points only - CLASS P (Premium Economy)
HEL > VIE Will earn 30 Status Credits and 1100 Frequent Flyer Points CLASS Y (Economy)

According to the earnings table, P Class should earn both points and status credits, yet i can see us only earning 6300 frequent flyer points.

Is this worth while chasing up with Qantas after we've flown?

The calculator often has issues with partner airlines/routes.

You probably won't need to, but hang on to your boarding passes just in case.

Yes, AY P class is an eligible “Premium Economy” as per the QF tables.

Strange the calc doesn’t recognise AY PE however between SIN-HEL (it does for the QF codeshare) but I’d be confident it credits correctly (just keep your eTicket and BPs until they do).

UPDATE: I called QANTAS QFF Team, queried the rejection, and the representative was able to manually process the points and SC credits to my account.

I have just flown Finnair from Helsinki to Oslo AY0917, Business Flex Class (class I), paid flight, with my QF FF number on my booking, and QANTAS has rejected my claim for points and SC. "The claim you made for missing Qantas Points submitted on 25-Jan-2025 has been processed but was UNSUCCESSFUL - AIRFARE AND BOOKING CLASS NOT ELIGIBLE TO EARN".
Is that correct?

Not correct. I class is an eligible AY booking class according to QFF.
