You cannot equate QF SC to BA TP at 1 to 1.
Need to look how many SC/TP needed for status & re-qualification.

A Jetstar bundle earns at full economy rates, where as most/many QF flights earn the discounted economy rate.

Although he is also looking to sign up for alternative FFPs as BAEC have gone down our estimations.

We had better treatments from CX and QF on our recent flights with them this year even if we are not members of their own FFP.
