If you have no status, you might like to consider crediting to AA and taking the Platinum challenge. This would get you Platinum status ( valid for rest of 2017 and all of 2018) just from the LHR-SYD journey and points which will be more valuable with no surcharges to pay on redemptions ( other than for BA redemptions )

I have status tier on BAEC. I've just checked and the Quantas (Emirates) flight should easily put me in to Bronze which would be great. I think this is pretty similar to the AA level. Thanks for the info!

Redeeming from my BA account for internal Qantas flights when I live there should be similar to BA for flights in Europe correct?
