The double status points is great just one economy return flight AKL-MNL NZ$1,062 (A$956) 260 SP enough to retain Silver NZ$4.08 (A$3.67) per SP ! :-)
I wish Virgin and AIRNZ would also run these double status points too!

I'm planning CMB/SIN/MEL/AKL return for about NZ$2,500 in business class which will yield 960 SC's - enough for Gold and well on the way to Platinum. NZ$2.60 per SC.

Make sure you factor in no DSCs on CMB-SIN.

I’ve been looking for flights to NA but have noticed that there aren’t availabilities after the second week of July. Is this because of flights haven’t been published?

Double status credits offer

Just got a double status credits offer (woo!) - wording a bit unclear, does it apply to QF ticketed flights but operated by Emirates for example? I'm assuming not.

Possibly the stupidest question anyone's ever asked

I've booked a whole heap of work trips. 5 bookings (with references) are now showing in My Bookings. However I've only been charged for 3 and can't work out how to pay for the other 2? Of course the queues for support are horrific at the moment

Is this a thing? Like a hold? I didn't realise that was possible. And when/how do I pay? And are they eligible for double SC if not paid before midnight?

classic qantas- one of the two has disappeared (despite being confirmed in my trips and despite me inputting my payment details and them issuing a confirmation number). Other I have an email about saying it's being held awaiting payment

Best bit- both have now doubled in price

Bloody marvellous

Quite strange. I booked 7 itineraries (bloody good timing for promo since I know my schedule thru April!), no problems at all.

Yeah same, never seen anything like it

spoke to qantas who also can’t work it out. But they have confirmed that price difference still needs to be paid and double SCs will not be honoured

Perfect timing.

Booking the window:

NTL-SYD-CBR-SYD
NTL-SYD-MEL-ADL-MEL-ADL
NTL-BNE-SIN-SGN-SIN-BNE-NTL
NTL-SYD-SIN-CMB-DXB-DEL-HKG-BNE-NTL
NTL-BNE-PER-BNE-NTL

Shame about the QF metal requirement or it would have really been raining SCs...
