Status credits

Hello. I have a little question from the clever folk on the QF board. I am a QF Platinum Frequent Flyer. I normally travel QF to HKG, however, I may have to travel CX on the next trip. Do I earn the same amount of Status credits if I fly on CX? Appreciate your advice. Thanks flyingmad

Assuming it is a fare basis eligable for miles accrual, then yes

You may well never return to QF after flying CX J with their fantastic seats and prompt service.

Just to add to the above comments, all of which I agree with: As you are probably already aware, you will not receive status bonus FF points flying with Cathay / other ow partners, but if your main interest is SCs, that will not be an issue.

Status bonus is just on the base miles correct?

Not on the Base + Cabin miles?

(only just made silver, so haven't seen it in action yet).

QFF's earn status bonus on QF, JQ? and AA.
BA did give it, until the EK link up started.

It does not seem 100% clear on the QANTAS site, maybe someone can help.

QANTAS do not operate this routing and their site therefore will not provide a valid answer:
How many QF status credits would I received for a Malaysia Airlines business class, from PVG-KUL-BOM return?
