Well I learnt something new today. Went to book at one way SIN SYD using a GV I purchased recently ;) and learnt that GVs can only be redeemed for flights originating from the country in which the GV was purchased in.:(

This information is already set out on the voucher booking page:
Vouchers are redeemable for one-way or return Qantas domestic or international flights departing Australia only.

It is also in the terms and conditions:
 
Pretty confused. Purchased same day return DSC to Auckland for a trip in late May. Obviously there have been a few changes since then...

Qantas today saying on social media you can get your value back in form of a travel credit if you cancel before end of March. (Note the social media post makes no mention of when flights were booked but the website says they have to have been booked in May, perhaps not updated yet).

I’m wondering if I just cross my fingers and hope the restrictions have been relaxed by end of May, or I cancel and get travel credit.

What happens to DSC if I get a travel credit?

If you don’t fly, you don’t earn status credits.
DSC will not apply to the future booking unless it is booked during another DSC promotion.

However, you now have me thinking about my DSC flight to Christchurch. I’m not bothered about losing credits, but will have to keep an eye on NZ border policy.
 
QF ought to give DSCs for those trips booked and paid under promo, without requiring pax to fly under these exceptional circumstance

Thanks. Understood. I realise I won’t get the DSC if I don’t fly. My question is though about rebooking with a travel credit for later in the year and still getting DSC for whatever flight I book.

If the PNR remains the same, DSC will still apply on the condition you fly within the travel window (some time in Feb next year). Somewhere up thread I posted step by step instructions on what to do.
 
Website has been updated to include all domestic and international bookings. Must act before March 31 though.

edit - so given that info I will likely get my travel credit and hope to book again later in the year!

@wannabe_wp Experience shows that is not a given and is actually unlikely; as long as the rebooked travel uses the original PNR and travel is not after 14th February then DSC would generally post automatically.

Thanks. That is reassuring. Will try get it in writing from Qantas and look for that previous message somewhere on this thread. Appreciate all your help everyone.

Why don't you just wait and see? Either you fly as planned, the airline cancels your flight or you can reschedule a couple of days before. No need to act this far out.
