Hi all,

First world issue folks - my credits expire on Sep 30th. Do they expire at 00.01am on the morning of the 30th, or at midnight that evening?

I have a flight on the 30th, which will earn enough credits to requalify my current tier...however it is not clear at what time of the day the credits expire. I suspect it is a 11.59pm reset on the 30th, but thought I'd ask the question. :p

cheers,
middlerowed

Any flight you take on 30 Sep will qualify for SC earn in your current year.

Flights taken on 01 Oct onwards will be posted in your next membership year 01 Oct 15 to 30 Sep 16.
 
Slight modification, any flight scheduled to depart on 30 Sept will count to the current year.
Just to cover the likes of QF1/2/9/10 etc
 
Moreover, status hangs around for several days into the new month - just in case those late running SC's post ... so even if they do not appear strait away, you will continue to enjoy the benefits.
 
My year also ends 30 Sept, and I have a couple of flights between now and then (incl one on the 30th). Its the '50% bonus' SC's for these flights that will keep me at WP, but these can take up to 6 weeks to credit (some from a couple of flights over the last week are yet hit my account).

I've assumed that the bonus SCs will count from when I took the flight/s, but now I'm wondering if is this correct? Any thoughts?

Cheers

Your assumption is correct. It might take some time for the bonus to appear, but they will apply as of when the flown flight was scheduled.
