My comment concerns loyal Qantas customers who are located overseas wanting to make the most of the double status promotions. To make things easier for Qantas's many international customers, it would be helpful for the cut-off dates for the offers to be clearly notified in the main part of ...
Qantas offers 50% status credit bonus for fast-track to Gold, Platinum

Jun 13, 2018, 10:15 PM

Platinum requesting upgrade for family member

Sep 19, 2018, 08:38 PM

My understanding is that the requesting member's QFF status is used when determining upgrade requests for family members, it's why I do upgrades for family members, otherwise I would not waste my time. Hope this helps
