Platinum Economy

[sjfy]

I’ve just earned Platinum status without ever flying in Business class (let alone First!). I feel like I ought to get some sort of extra prize or something.

Ok, that's worse than me.

Mine is largely SYD to Darwin and assorted South Pacific countries. There were two long-haul international trips, which is unusual. 51 sectors in my membership year, I think.

What do you do? Do you travel a lot for work?

Feels like Qantas should offer some inflatable seat cushion for Y only platinums.

Welcome to a very 'special' club. I too hit Plat four years running from 2015-2020, with flights being in Y, but that included domestic and runs across the ditch, and to the UK. I had established and built up the Australian arm for a UK company, covering BD, Sales and Delivery.

The worst year was 2018, with 112 domestic and 20 international legs. The only saving grace on the runs to the UK was the CSM would come back to say hello and drop off goodies from up the front.
