Qantas FF points after Emirates Flight
Hi
I took a flight on Emirates on the 6th of April. From Hamburg to Dubai. In U class. Gave them my QF FF. Miles not posted till today ( and also claimed them on my Qf FF Profile). Do you know how long it takes to post?
Did anyone got their miles for flying on Emirates ( other route than Australia) ?

Yes sorry if I missed the discussion, but how to credit EK flights (non-Australia) to QFF? The EK "add FF number" page doesn't have an option for QFF.
Or if you can't, what else can you credit EK to?
Will be flying EK F soon on this nice fare

I just went to "manage a booking" for my next EK flight, selected "add FF number", clicked "change", and was able to select Qantas from the drop-down box for "airline" and put in my QF number and click "save." I logged in with my Emirates number before going to the booking. So it may be that you need to join Emirates Skywards and use the EF number to log in before you can get to that part of "manage a booking".
Note that on an EK flight number you'll get QFF points but not status credits. (I'm crediting to EK and building towards gold there rather than on QF. YMMV.)

Recently had a similar issue with MH...
Flight Mar 8 > posted Mar 12
Flight Mar 9 > posted Mar 12
Flight Mar 21 > posted Apr 9
Flight Mar 25 > not yet posted, submitted claim last week
Am sure EK and MH will get mre robust in time, we just need to be patient, check and otherwise claim til they are

Took 2 flights with Emirates in early-mid April, entering my Qantas FF number on my booking at the Emirates website prior to both flights, however still no points credited for either flight.
