QP in CX Tin

[Groundfeeder]

Not sure if this is best forum, but I'm flying BNE-HKG-FCO (Rome) return ticketed CX PE in Sept and wondering if I have QF/CX Lounge access in HKG and FCO, as the Cathay site and Oneworld rules (guidelines?) are vague to me.
Cheers

Do you have any status or just Qantas Club?

Just QP NB these days after tasting rarified (status) airs over the years.

Pretty sure that's a no then

 

[N860CR]

No to all, unfortunately

With no lounge or status it's a consideration where to send your FF points earned from this journey (assuming it's a paid ticket).

The two obvious options are CX and QF which will earn similar points.
You'll be much closer to QF Silver with 4~ additional QF flights, but CX points are worth ~30% more than Qantas points when redeeming from a standing start.
Crediting to AA you'll scrape into AA Gold (oneworld ruby) but you'll want some AA flights to concrete that status.

Many other options to consider as part of your ongoing strategy to extract max value from your points... always happy to help
