Nope.People have done this. Cost vs distance is only approximate.
But from where? AU? To East Coast USA?
Status with which airline ffp?
Shorter trips can earn status quicker, but at a cost.
Status earning can vary a lot depending on ffp, operating/marketing airline and/or route.
Earning status &/or ff miles/points/avios can depend on distance, cost and/or zone.
From Sydney to New York or Montreal. Status with Qatar Airways which is why I'm interested in flying this route. Thanks for the link definitely makes the comparison easier. Qantas/AA would be the logical choice flying West but points for renewal would be lower and doesn't help avoiding the US
