Hey guys,

Been doing a bit of reading over the last few days and trying to toss up what airline to potentially accumulate status against (not 100% committed at this stage) on top of Qantas gold to have a good mix of redemption options/cash options.

Would QR be a good option for flights to Europe or in Europe domestically, or better value instead of Qantas redemptions (in terms of success rates etc, i.e. if Qantas no J redemptions available, use Qatar as the next best option?).

As I don't have any velocity points at all and reading through the devaluation etc I don't think I would be going for it either. I basically only have Qantas points for redemption across all FF programs. My thoughts is to look for a flexible yet useful for me program for Europe travel, as Qantas covers most of the destinations I visit/plan to travel to already :)

Alternatively I think BA and QR can both be relatively interchangeable, but my mrs loves QR so ..!
