Well cd, you certainly know how to make an entrance! You'll have everyone around here work themselves into a lather with talk of program changes.

Anyhow, welcome.

Shillard, you have let me down. When I first saw the original post, I was just waiting for you to light the flame thrower and let loose. Now I check back in a moment of boredom looking for some excitement and all I get is this!

Please dont tell me you have lost your touch?

I am uk based and new to all the FF programs. I have not joined the QF program as I am with the BA Exec Club program. I know that their program is going to change for UK members. I don't know if it will apply gobally as their scheme is global, but
I'd imagine it would.

The above is all true. It'll be broadcast before the end of the year. The only bit that is rumour (ie I don't know for certain) is that the scheme is going to be less 'friendly' (for want of a better word). This would make sense as BA have done the same.

from work, who have a relationship with Qantas.

I know if this isn't public knowledge yet and the fact that I am new may make this hard to believe but it is true. I can only say wait and see.

I myself wanted to know more info but it is limited to 'a need to know basis' here at work so I thought I'd ask you guys if anyone else knows anymore.

What type of relationship? Which part of QF do they do business with?

One more!

(Add some more value to this post...)

It won't surprise me if they change the program, given BA are changing theirs.

It'll only be a surprise if they change it to be more user-friendly.

On that basis, and given they've only changed it less than 2 years ago, I'll be disappointed if they do change it.

Don't want to guess the whats/whens/hows etc... Let's start that when we see something substantial...

Sorry, as this news does not seem to be public info, I'd rather not say and compromise my position. Hope you understand.
