Register to earn double Qantas Points on flights to the US [targeted]

I received the following email from Qantas Frequent Flyer:

Double Qantas Points USA July 2019

Hi Matt,

Whether you’re planning an adventure around America or visiting for work, flying to the USA is now even more rewarding.
 
Book an Economy flight to San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, Dallas or Honolulu and earn double Qantas Points on Qantas operated flights with a QF flight number.*
 
Simply register and book your flight between 12.01am (AEST) 13 July 2019 and 11.59pm (AEST) 22 July 2019, for travel between 23 July 2019 and 31 August 2019.
 
Remember to include your Qantas Frequent Flyer number in your booking.

You must complete all travel by the end of August, so this promotion is best suited to those looking for a last-minute getaway.

A personalised registration link was provided—there is no public landing page for this promotion. As such, I would recommend checking your email inbox to see if you have been targeted. Previous booking, unfortunately, are not eligible for bonus points.

Current Qantas flight prices to the US

Qantas flights to the US during this and next months aren’t too expensive, which is surprising given it is the northern summer. I can see flights to Los Angeles pricing from $1,140 return from Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.

Sydney to Honolulu flights start at $1,062 return. August is one of the driest months of the year in Hawaii.

Hawaii Beach

A Discount Economy ticket from the East Coast to Los Angeles return usually nets you 9,000 Qantas Points. With this promotion, you’ll earn 18,000 points, which I value at $360. That means that if you buy your ticket for $1,140, you’re getting almost a third of the value back in points. That’s a great deal.

Qantas Boeing 737 Business Class
The points earned on this trip could get you a Business Class flight from Brisbane to Sydney (costs 16,000/18,400 before/after 18 September 2019)

A bonus perk for millennials

Additionally, if you’re aged between 18 and 35 years old and are planning to travel Qantas internationally up until February 2020, then you can get a free lounge pass.

Other current bonus Qantas Points offers

Earn 18,000 bonus Qantas Points for completing a CSIRO diet

You’ll earn 10,000 bonus points when you join the 12 Week Program (including the Protein Balance program) plus an additional 8,000 points when you complete the plan.

CSIRO-Qantas Points offer

It’ll cost you $199 for the full program, but your private health insurance may cover some/all of this under Dietary Advice or Wellness.

You’ll receive the 10,000 bonus points about halfway through the program.

Once you successfully complete the program, you usually have the choice to get your fee refunded. However, with this bonus Qantas Points offer, you do not have that option. Instead, to get the extra 8,000 points, it’s quite an involved process:

  1. Record your weight in the online diary at least once a week for 12 consecutive weeks, within the week of your scheduled weigh-in
  2. Upload a photo of yourself every week for the 12 week program via your private weight tracker within the website
  3. Achieve a net weight loss over the 12 weeks
  4. Complete a program completion survey
  5. Contact the customer service team within 14 days of completing the program
  6. Consent to the CSIRO using your story to help inspire other members

It’s important that you are aware of the many steps required to get your second batch of bonus points. As such, I would only recommend this offer to those people who were going to sign up to a weight loss program anyway.

Here is the offer page and sign-up link.

Lucrative offer: earn 20,000 bonus Qantas Points by opening and depositing $350 into a new Australian Super account

A few notes:

  • Existing members and TTR (Transition to Retirement) Income accounts are ineligible for the bonus points offer
  • You’ll be charged an administrative fee of $2.25/week
  • You may be charged an investment fee of 0.66% of your balance
  • You can avoid insurance premiums if you opt out of the insurance
  • Whilst you cannot withdraw your funds until retirement, you can roll them over to another super fund in Australia—you may wish to wait until 1 July to do so as that is when the $35 exit fee will disappear
  • This does not constitute individual tax advice but rather just passing on details of this promotion—contact a financial services professional if you need advice
