Have asked this thread to be moved to the QF forum-->https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/qant...ent-flyer-498/

In Oneworld ff earning are based on the marketing carrier(flight number) when an eligible operating carrier.
While your flight was sold by BA what is the flight number?
Earnings on QR Qatar marketed flights to QF ffp are poor or even nil. Earnings on BA marketed flights to QF ffp are better.
With QF ffp the earn category does not always match the fare class of travel. MH is very bad.
QF ff earnings have not changed since Oct 2021. Some did not change.
You ask about "status points" QF has status credits (tier levels) and QF ff points (for redeemable travel)
