Status Credit Questions

[diversitypair1]

1. I'm flying Air NZ with a codeshare QF flight tomorrow. Does anyone know how long the status credits will take to hit my account?
2. I need these credits in addition to the loyalty bonus (50 SC) to hit before the end of the month to make WP. If it takes longer than 4 days, is there any chance I can ask for an extension to my membership year or for Qantas to honour these credits?

The SCs will apply to this membership year no matter when they are credited.

You would not get an extension, but the status will be updated appropriately.

If you need the LB also, and there is a delay pist July 31 in the SC crediting, you may need to get this manually adjusted by QFF.

Not I'm unsure if a QF codeshare on NZ qualifies for the LB as there are conflicting T&C regarding QF flight number or an eligible QF flight. I think probably should though.

Much appreciated for the fast responses Richard. I'm flying Air NZ Class K and L and I've confirmed with QF that this would earn SC with "Economy" class over the phone.

Yep that is correct for QF international flights.
(And cofeshare on NZ)

Does anyone know if Air NZ Codeshare QF counts in Loyalty Bonus?

Actually seems to be fine:



21.8.1 Members will be rewarded with a choice of a Loyalty Bonus of either 8,000 Qantas Points or 50 Status Credits for every 500 Status Credits earned on flights with a Qantas (QF) flight number (including partner airline flights with a Qantas (QF) flight number) or on flights with a Jetstar Airlines (JQ, 3K and GK) flight number (including partner airline flights with a Jetstar Airlines flight number) within a single membership year - up to a maximum of four Loyalty Bonuses per membership year. See the Airline Earning Tables for eligible flights and fares that earn Status Credits.
