Qantas surveying members about spend-based status attainment

[kangarooflyer88]

I imagine that the bean counters at Qantas have looked at what VA is doing and have liked it.

I fully expect Qantas to announce a pure revenue based model within the next 12 months.

Anyone prepared to bet against it?

Since when has Qantas copied anything Virgin does? If anything they’ve tried their hardest to distinguish themselves from them.

Keep in mind too not every airline has adopted a revenue model for loyalty. Some have and it is a growing trend but a decade ago this didn’t exist in the industry at all.

Be interesting to see if they go to revenue based would that mean the end of DSC.

I guess all of us who are life time gold won’t effect them too much.

Maybe not DCS but I’ve seen US airlines offer ‘double EQMs’ or whatever lingo they use for their recognition of revenue.

So it might be that you get double the base of your airfare.
