In my case, I'm wondering if QF81 ADL-SYD is considered domestic. If not, I do suppose that I've already been bought by the bonus for ADL-SYD-SIN-ADL.

Indeed, but suddenly the OpUp gods have a real chance of smiling upon us.

"I know what you're thinking. Did they OpUp 6 people, or was it only 5? Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a Boeing 767, the biggest domestic business class in Australia ... you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?"

Haha, just when I changed all my flights to be in J (were YASAs, upgraded to JASAs (changed)).

The only thing I find incredible is the $4000 ticket price on CBR-PER-CBR in J. You should get a 22,000 points for wearing that.

Haha, not when its a JASA I love getting the 747/737 jet services (not prop Dash8) when booked in J.

Also, for me, I kinda need J, cos I'm 6ft9in tall and 180kg haha.

I find the skybeds small lol. When is the 2-class 747 (Domestically used one on QF582 and 581 (I think)) going to get fitted out with A380 style flat bed and entertainment?

Also will the A333 or the A332s ever get A380 stylez in Domestic?

Would you know anything about it Red Roo?

I am not sure that it means that. I am assuming it means that if the pax was booked 20:15 MEL-SYD and they move to 20:00 they wont be eligible...

 

[Kangol]

I can confirm that the bonus points are starting to appear. A flight I took on the 17th was credited on the 21st.

Same, my flights on the 17th and 19th were credited today (22nd).

 

[Storyteller]

Thank you Qantas for another bonus. If I'm already in J, the double points is nice, plus opportunity for upgrade if I'm in Y.

Re others talking about the bonus points posting. My 16/11 & 17/11 flights SC & points posted that night & the next morning. Bonuses posted 20 & 22/11.
ADL DRW ADL from 20/11 SC etc posted same evening. ADL SYD BNE from 20/11 posted 21/11. Bonus points for all posted today.

Usual flight credits seem to have accelerated posting at the moment. The prompt posting of the bonus points is great. If it takes too long it takes the shine off things.

I've read it as follows:-

If you were booked on a Sunday evening BNE-Syd and you changed to Monday morning you would not qualify!

Happy to be corrected if I've misunderstood

Hi JV,
Flights booked under the WOAG contract do earn SCs.
Red Roo

Thanks RR,

By the way, a good promotion - hope I can take advantage of it (one of my sons already has).

Not complaining .. BUT I am trying to work out how the bonus points are worked out . I am Silver so 25% bonus. When I look at my statement, it appears that it applies the 1000 min point to the bonus as well ?

468 + 234 = 702 x25% = 877 ( but as below i received 1000)

I have another 10 flights in the travel period so looks like a happy Xmas bonus waiting

Great promo re: upgrades.

What are the chances of a WP getting one on the PER - SYD 747 flights? I was planning to points upgrade my flexi ticket.... but now I'm thinking I should risk it.

How many WP's an CL's would be on a PER -SYD flight?

m.

 

[serfty]

As indicated by RR, the bonus relates to total earn (includes those for stats/cabin), so would be based on the 1000 point guarantee.

Not sure why it has not come through at the rate indicated.

My understanding is that you should have got 500 as the bonus? ... looking at my statement today, it appears the bonus that went through today was 100% - instead of the 50% i should have got (and which posted correctly for a previous flight)

 

[JohnK]

Seriously, from lack of reports it appears none of the bonus points have been credited as yet. They will post - be patient for now.

I get jealous when others receive and I am left out.

Had a flight on 18th and one on 20th. Today I received bonus points for one flight. Assuming it is the one on the 18th and could possibly mean the bonus points will posts ~4 days after actual flight.

Still a happy chap and all so much closer to the 4th Oneworld award in the bank....

Well the next 3 days are showing availability on the QF582 744 for PER-SYD as J9 D9, so should be a decent chance, but could also be dozens of WPs on those flights.

 

[JohnM]

I can confirm that the bonus points are starting to appear. A flight I took on the 17th was credited on the 21st.

Likewise - the bonus points for my MEL-PER flight last Friday came through today.

Looking foward to the bonus on upcoming PER-BNE-PER and PER-MEL-CBR-MEL-PER JASAs in the first two weeks of December . But double SCs would have gone down better .

Hi ya, first post here!

Love the forum! I'm WP & got the points bonus & free gift, which was really nice. But the real question is, what bottle of wine or gift do I get? Is it the $130 bottle, or something else? Has anyone already received this? Apologies if this has already been addressed?

Welcome, Jim.

Do tell, what was the gift / wine for? EpiQure? Or maybe inconvenienced by grounding?

 

[jim001]

Hi Storyteller

Thanks for the prompt reply! My apologies, & maybe my inexperience, but I thought I got the same as everyone else so, yes, I got epicure, which includes a free bottle of wine??? I was wondering what that was, & maybe when it will appear (no hurry though)!

JIM

 

[Storyteller]

Ah. So you are Platinum1 then? Wine & EpiQure go with this. Congratulations.
Did you go to the Reception in Sydney last Wednesday?

 

[jim001]

No Storyteller, I'm not P1, just a lowly WP, did I get more than I bargained for? Dunno! I haven't recd anything yet, I was just wondering, hence my post!!

 

[frankxinyu]

my bonus points came through today for my weekend trip to CNS..thank you Qantas.

wouldnt care if it is double SC though, ive qualified for Platinum in 4 months, but no way i can reach platinum 1 so ill just save all the points for next year
