Aaah... a Classic decision....
Classic plus because they map to a higher fare bucket and they will be considered ahead of Classic rewards when upgrades are doled out.
How do they map? viz. if Classic Economy is X, does Classic Plus have a different bucket?
 
Shame you had to crop the top.

I’m assuming that’s Economy v Business.

It's the standard search view for a Rewards-based search on Qantas dot com. Domestic itineraries (by default) show 1 Economy Reward column, 1 Business Reward column.
I can't get both search and results to display in one compact screenshot, but I could replicate with a random date (6 September) - it's a lotta scrolling.

Yes, I know. That’s why I said…

Others, I assume, assumed it was whY v whY and thus comments on upgrade priority. A bit mute if booking into J….

Here’s a corker…(yes, that’s Economy v Business).

I recall when they were first released they didn’t earn any. Has that changed? Remembering they are same fare buckets as normal fares and thus treated like P+P.

I like to call these "take the hint" or "IQ test" moments.

Same as when we saw Any Seat (or now Points + Pay) fares going for 1M points. Yes it's outrageous, but it's not to say Qantas are stupid, that's just what the system says it will cost. It's just one of life's ways of saying, "you ain't getting this" without bluntly saying so (or unless you happen to be one of those stinking rich fools that has way too many points for their own good).

Same thing happens in the shops, even with unit pricing helping everyone out.
And don't forget, on Classic plus you don't get any SCs even as a PC/PC+.

A huge oversight for the Classic plus implementation

I recall when they were first released they didn’t earn any. Has that changed? Remembering they are same fare buckets as normal fares and thus treated like P+P.

The info site on Classic Plus says they are just like Classic Awards, as in no SC, except for Points Club (and Points Club Plus) members.
