Question Codes on JQ domestic boarding pass

Hi everyone,
I noticed the following codes on my JQ web check boarding pass.

BA20,HVC,JLSF,QFFP,V05A,WCEM,WCID

While I can guess what some of them mean, wonder what the others mean,
in particular, HVC, JLSF, V05A

I bought a Starter Plus fare but not checking in luggage.

This is my first time flying JQ domestic. All previous experiences are with JQ International Business and the international boarding passes look different.

I note that my QFFP number does not appear anywhere, only the words QFFP, whereas with international, the actual QFF number also appears on the boarding pass. Hopefully my points will post alright.

Cheers, Gerald

V05A is a $5 voucher (from the plus fare) [V10A is $10]
I have never had an issue with QF points posting from JQ flights. But keep the boarding pass

Thanks Mwenenzi.
So I guess I need to flag down an FA when they do the buy on board, so that I can make use of the $5 voucher?
Any idea what HVC and JLSF stand for?
I have already picked a standard window seat as far forward as I can without paying for the up-front seat. If there are still some of those up-front seats available at the counter check-in, could these be requested at the counter without charge?
Thanks.
Cheers, Gerald

The crew have a list of all pax and whether or not they have a $5 voucher. The system works quite well.

Yes, you do have to say something. The JQ crews are not very good at noticing that you have a voucher. When they ask if I want anything from the trolley I usually say " there should be a credit there for me" they look up their list and agree. I usually ask for a muffin and a cup of tea, and they are on their way.
As someone else said, the points and SCs credit 24 hrs after the flight ( in my experience )

Not possible on an International. Domestic flight - the BP is kept by immigration/ customs.

This comment was meant to read "domestic sector of an international flight (eg SYD-MEL).

Found this out a lot after travelling quite a few times on the 40SC sub $300 Starclass fares.

I took to taking a photo of my BP before boarding - although in the end I never needed to chase credit for these.

My experience on JQ domestic flights in NZ is that on every flight I've had a voucher for, would proactively ask me when they come along with the trolley. They have a list ordered by seat number so they know who to ask and they simply go through the list in order as they move through the plane. Perhaps the process is different in other markets.

Points/SC seem to vary -- sometimes it posts the next day but I've noticed for my last few flights its taken weeks. Again maybe JQ NZ specific. Looking at my records I've had a few flights (even though with QFFP on the BP showing my QFF number had been linked) where the points/SC did not post at all, requiring me to end in my BPs for a manual points claim.

YMMV.
