| How to Earn Qantas Status |
Qantas status is the gateway to a more enjoyable travel experience with Qantas and its partner airlines. With status you'll enjoy perks like lounge access, bonus points, more upgrades, extra baggage allowance and many more benefits. You'll also be able to skip the airport queues with access to priority check-in, security and boarding lanes.
Every Qantas Frequent Flyer member starts out with a Bronze card. To earn Qantas status, you'll need to accumulate enough status credits in your Qantas Frequent Flyer membership year. Status credits are separate to frequent flyer points and can only be earned by flying. But there are a few shortcuts! |

Upcoming Webinar:
Supercharge Your Points at the Supermarket |
| |
 |
|
Think supermarket loyalty programs like Flybuys and Woolworths Rewards aren't worth it? Think again!
It's easier than you might expect to earn tens of thousands of points at the supermarket without spending a fortune on groceries! The trick is to take advantage of targeted bonus offers. But the number and quality of the offers you receive will depend on how well you game the system. Do it right and you could earn 50x more points at the checkout!!
At first glance, earning 1 Flybuys point for every $1 spent at Coles is not a great deal. But why spend $2,000 to earn 2,000 points, when you can spend just $200 and earn over 10,000 Flybuys points?
Our upcoming webinar on 18 June will show you how anyone - including you - can supercharge the points they earn at the supermarket. As well as how to game the Flybuys and Woolworths Rewards loyalty programs, we'll show you how to maximise your credit card points on everyday purchases. You could be missing out on tens of thousands of points!
