Life Time Gold - The [Realistic] Holy Grail

[Jacques Vert]

I’ll be in the FJ lounge in NAN on 18th Dec. Does that work for you?

I'll buy the drinks if you pay for the flights.

It’s traditional that new members always buy the first round of drinks.

I didn't know this! Or maybe it was because I hit LTG literally the week before all the COVID lockdowns started in 2020, so pretty much didn't have any use for it for a couple of years.

I also invite you then to the FJ lounge in NAN on 18th Dec to buy a round.

I already have my flights thanks. (QF J award on FJ to SIN)

I crossed over LTG as well as annual Platinum recently while having a shower on board the Emirates A380 in F on a QF codeshare somewhere over Germany.

At the rate it took me to get to LTG, I'll be LTP in my mid-100's...

Not bad! I'll be 170+!

This is my actual fear! I'm a few months away from LTG (mid-July should do it), and won't be comfortable about it until I'm inside the notice period for QFF changes

Now don't be mean!

It's my fear too. I'm at 8.5K SCs, and with all this discussion of upcoming enhancements I am very concerned about the LTG goal posts moving.

What is the notice period. Just checked mine. Got about 900 to go before lifetime gold.

No recognition. No up in the air moment from at least the first officer haha. (Pilot for ltp)

Also how many ltg are there ? Too many to get first class lounge access for life ????

Also where to from here. Still need to keep platinum so switching to baec seems pointless ???

Some of the more recent posts/reactions are just too funny.

Hint: Don’t panic

If anything were to happen, then this is probably the one that matters:

3.2 Qantas Loyalty will use best efforts to advise Members of material changes to these Terms and Conditions and, where such changes will limit Benefits:

(a) where the Benefit is provided by Qantas, to give Members at least three months notice;
(b) where the Benefit is provided by a third party, where possible give Members at least 30 days notice.

Cheers,
Matt.

Breaking news! QF announces that in response to customer requests, LTG threshold enhanced to 28000 SCs at midnight tonight!

And I further corrected typos for you and @Daver6 . Always blame the customer. Always!

No point me going for LTG, as by the time I might get there I wouldn't have much of a lifetime left (if any).

So that's not something that worries me about QFF (but other things do).

And to remind the dopey clowns that the enhanced 14K SCs would not be necessary if they were Match Fittm
