What is the most QFF points you have ever had in the bank at any one time?

[Nizar]

Currently at my peak of 210k. Had zero in January.
Debating on whether to blow them next year on 2x one way MEL-LAX FASAs or trying to save up for 2x280k awards which would take me ages.
The more I think about it the more likely I am to go for the former as could piece together a RTW using AA/LM as well as QF points.

 

[lovetravellingoz]

Well for several years now I mainly earn/burn via *A which is my first preference due to the better value for myself there, but by secondary point collection my QFF account still chugs away and is up to about 0.8 mill now.

I had been thinking of using some points for 2 J RTW.

But might use some to go to Africa in J in 2015 for 2, as OW has more direct routes that *A, and that also means that the fuel fines and taxes are lower, which means that you save travel time and money, but spend more of points. Would be nice (and not a lot more points to continue on for a RTW , but as I am planning on doing a 30 safari, I just probably will not have the time.

 

[esquire]

Currently hover around the 1M-1.2M mark but reached 2M last year before finally having some time free to use some of them....

The most that I have had is about 1 million, but I think a more interesting question is how much as anyone earned in one calendar year. One year my supplier did a Diners card bonus of four points for every dollars spent, together with my flying and other card purchases I earned over 900,000 points in the one year.

 

[k_sheep]

I've had like 180,000 twice, then I blow them on JASAs

 

[simonpenny408]

1,357,468 fml

 

[will2rob]

Just under 500k before I booked several JASAs to take me to Platinum. I'm not keeping much in my account until I know whether MASAs are gone for good or being retained by Qantas.

1,357,468 fml

I presently have 2.987 million - it did reach 3.4 but have been using them to upgrade to FIRST on SYD/LHR and return.
My wife has 1.24 so we have a few to play with - Just under 8 years to accumulate - about to give 2 million away to my Grandkids - take them to Disneyland before I get hit by a bus and give them back to Alan for nothing!!

 

[ashleyn]

Been saving them up for a bucket list J trip to Europe. Currently just over 700k but will burn 500k of them on the bookings soon.

 

[pagingjoan]

Can't approach the 3M mark, as some of our members have. Have been over 1.5M at times, as my points were used in the past only for upgrades to J - and most of them were earned on long haul Y.

Then I discovered AFF - and ASAs.

Now it's earn & burn. But I usually have 200k in hand, "just in case".

 

[craven morehead]

How long did it take you to accumulate 3.2m points ?
That's gonna be hard to beat :mrgreen:

I suspect it was about 3 years , had some serious cc spend along with some genuine "J" international travel for work.

 

[craven morehead]

About 69,000 points Do I lose?

You can never lose !! If one travels for the right reasons or pays their credit card of each month then you are a winner

 

[DaveB]

I still have 7 figures with QF, about half what I had prior to the mandatory CC point sweep imposed and I then started sending points earn elsewhere apart from Woolies purchases.

 

[The Rok]

225,000 and counting. Need 280,000 for a classic J return from Perth to Miami.

You can probably do a fair bit more than PER-MIA return if priced as a J 280k award ?

Such as? The second ticket I will probably buy AA miles and book on the same flights.

 

[cove]

Frequent Flyer Points are for spending so they are not totally like cash. I had thought that maybe I had gone too far getting the family points total into great shape but I now see we have many on AFF who are running to the maximum.

 

[jukebox333]

670,000 two years ago - coverted into 5X Oneworld awards for a White Xmas in Finland, plus warm up/warm down time in SIN and HKG.

Currently at 420,000 on my way to a target of 570,000 for 2X J Oneworlds

 

[Tristanm]

Around 365,000 as of a couple of days ago, burned some on J classic awards just recently so back down to 70k

 

[pyffii]

Have had a balance of around 1.5 million until burned 500K recently on a classics to JNB an upgrade on points to F from LAX to MEL and various JASA's prior to June 26th...will maintain a balance around the current mark but mindful of the possible devaluation of points over time so guess I might spend some more points by years end
