UPDATE 27 July 2021 | The offer has been extended to 31 July 2021. Christmas might just have come early for your Qantas Points balance, thanks to a merry triple points deal on your next post-lockdown adventure with Qantas. In fact, you’re encouraged to plan ahead for the upcoming festive season with Qantas also extending its ‘Fly Flexible’ policy to cover unlimited fee-free changes until 28 February 2022.
It’s a really challenging time for many Australians as we navigate these latest outbreaks, but we know planning holidays and family reunions brings a lot of excitement and gives people something to look forward to. With the vaccine rollout ramping up and flexibility on all of our fares, there’s no better time to book your next trip.
This is one of our biggest-ever offers and we hope it will inspire travellers to start planning their next holiday to reconnect with loved ones around Australia and across the Tasman.
– Stephanie Tully, Qantas Chief Customer Officer, 22 July 2021
Qantas touts itself as ‘the only airline in Australia operating 787s and A330s domestically. Business Class guests enjoy lie-flat beds while everyone else can still relish the extra space and entertainment on those flights.
Deal: Triple Qantas Points on flights, hotels and more
| Expiry: Register and book by 11:59pm AEST, 31 July 2021 |
Flights
To kick things off, you need to register through this link to enjoy triple Qantas Points on flights – that’s a minimum of 2,400 points per flight! Eligible travel dates range from 28 July 2021 to 30 June 2022, so you can plan your Christmas getaway or even lock something in for next year’s winter trip.
Hotels
Until 31 July 2021, earn 9 Qantas Points per A$1 spent on hotels and resorts in Australia and New Zealand through Qantas Hotels. Say you book a room for five nights at A$200 a night – enjoy 9,000 Qantas Points back after your stay, instead of the standard 3,000 points – enough for a short Qantas Economy Classic Reward flight.
Car hire
Avis joins in on the fun too. Instead of the usual 4 points per dollar, nab an incredible 12 Qantas Points per A$1 spent on Avis vehicles within Australia. A $1,000 weekly rental just became so much more rewarding when you’re showered with 12,000 points afterwards. That’s enough to fly Brisbane-Cairns on a reward seat (+ taxes).
Holiday packages
Finally, let Qantas Holidays do all the work and sort out your Qantas flights and hotel stay in one go. You will also earn 9 Qantas Points per A$1 spent on a flight + hotel package, instead of the usual 3 points per dollar.
Summing up: other ways to boost your balance
Qantas’ latest triple points offers is one of the biggest frequent flyer bonus points deals we’ve seen in recent times. If you’ve been on the fence with booking, now could be the time to take the plunge.
It’s especially a no-brainer with Qantas Hotels and Avis car hire, both of which have flexible booking options so you can secure a triple-points deal now, but still have the ability to cancel later on.
There are a number of other ways to earn bonus Qantas Points, including by signing up to a Qantas Points-earning credit card, buying wine through Qantas Wine, swiping your Woolworths Rewards card and booking accommodation through Airbnb. And here are some of the best ways to use them.
re: australiansuper acc, what is the go if I am already with Q super with QLD health deducting payments from my Q super account fortnightly?
During the sign in process they ask for my employer ABN which I assume they are asking for to deduct payments from my QLD health paychecks. If I have 2 super accounts how does it work, does QLD health pay out to 2 different supers?
Look forward to hearing from you
Thanks!
The relevant terms and conditions are shown below:
(c) …contribute a minimum of $350 to their AustralianSuper account within 6 months from the date they join the Fund (being the date the new member is allocated an AustralianSuper membership number).
The total contribution amount needs to be a minimum of $350 – it can be either a single contribution or cumulative amount within 6 months from the date you have joined the Fund (being the date you open an account and are allocated an AustralianSuper membership number). If it’s under that amount, the eligibility criteria has not been met. Once the $350 minimum contribution threshold has been met you can expect to receive your points approximately 2-3 months from the contribution date.
As you can see, the terms do not clearly define contribution, so while it probably can be assumed that this would cover both concessional and non-concessional contributions, as opposed to say rollovers, it would be best to contact AustralianSuper directly to confirm.
ie buy the gift vouchers before Oct 16, and ticket and fly before June 30 2019.
The FAQ on the offer seem to imply “Yes”. But i rang qantas and they said “not sure and think maybe not”
Useless. Thoughts?
So any flights that you booked under the previous promo fall under that one, and any others that you book before Tuesday will be fall under the more recent promo.
It MAY be that having registered for the promo, AND if you have your QFF details defined in your Uber account, then it will all work, but I’d start with the QF app to be sure.
I want to know what are the criteria to be eligible for Qantas Promotions, I know it is sent to random members of QFF and a system generated but how to be eligible to get an email like Double points or status points, I am a Platinum member.
Matt
Would obviously be subject to any change fees etc.
I tried calling QFF to ask the above, and they said no, then yes then maybe – so I’m left unsure of this!
Any articles in the making re best fares for a status run whilst the double status is on?
CNS-BNE-MEL-SYD-NOU-SYD-BNE-CNS
For $1343 netting 780 status credits.
Takes a bit of work with the multi-stop booking engine.
Note you need the QF flights, not the QF-coded Air Calin between SYD and NOU
Enter in booking engine:
CNS to MEL
MEL to SYD
SYD to NOU
NOU to CNS
Choose the CNS-MEL option with the stop in BNE.
Can’t make it work forcing a MEL on the return.
Apparently, NOU airport is 50 minutes outside the town – there care some chain (and other) hotels, including Hilton and Meridien (SPG).
I’m looking to purchase RTW biz class for for two for an 8 week romp late next year (Australia through USA, Europe, return). I’m getting pressure to buy now, but wondering if I should wait for a possible January Qantas promotion for double points/status credits?
Thanks!!
Is the double SC promo mentioned above (offer 2) a targeted offer or a general offer? I haven’t received an email with the offer and nor can I find anything on the Qantas website with the offer details.
Thanks,
Kerrod.
I spent far too much time working this offer out. When using link on this article, the page would state ‘Registration Confirmation’ and as I was already logged in to my FF account, thought, yeah, is that it. Just didn’t seem to gel. In the end, I logged out of my FF account and just went back to main Qantas page and right off the bat is where I could register (the sliding content at top of page – link takes you here:
https://www.qantas.com/fflyer/dyn/memberSpecials/double-points-QF-EK?int_cam=au%3Aen%3Ahomepage-promotion%3Adouble-points-qf-ek%3Aen%3Ann&adobe_mc=MCMID%3D76137379311443825712217785782046238827%7CMCORGID%3D11B20CF953F3626B0A490D44%2540AdobeOrg%7CTS%3D1504588488
and then right in front of you is the big red button that says register now. Good luck.
Cheers. Scuba
For all. The link in the article does not allow you to register (comes up as ‘Registration confirmed’). In lieu of this, go to the main Qantas front page and in the banner area at the top (the scrolling pictures) is one that links to a page that has the option to register.
PH Mods – maybe you could update the link within the article accordingly.
Cheers. Scuba.
I wonder how they decide who to target with emails like this
Please check the terms and conditions.
Generally, you are only allowed ONE offer! And that defaults to the first one that you register for.
Please confirm for your readers that the double points (advertised on the QF website for all) is indeed stackable with double status credits (which may be targeted by email).
Furthermore, if not stackable, folk will need to decide which they want – the points for the status! And then apply for that offer only or first.
“Only one bonus Qantas Points offer can be used per individual qualifying segment of your itinerary.”
but the double Status Credits offer differs in saying:
“Only one bonus Status Credits offer can be used per individual qualifying segment of your itinerary.”
The language from the targeted email to people that received both offers reads:
“As a special bonus for you, we are also offering double Status Credits on all eligible Qantas operated domestic or international flights with a ‘QF’ flight number on your ticket”
so it seems that the double Status Credits offer is in addition to the double Qantas Points offer.
“…This offer cannot be used in conjunction with any other bonus offer by Qantas…If you qualify for multiple offers, the offer first-registered for will be applied to each individual qualifying segment…”
If the status offer specifically states you can double dip then folk should keep a copy of the terms and conditions and challenge QF to deliver both the bonus points and status credits based on the written evidence.
However, the good news is the 20,000 points has already been credited to my account.
I’ve been looking to upgrade my S5 for a while, and when I seen this, perfect opportunity to do so with some bonus points to boot!
Thank goodness I have already registered!
Sincerely ‘Qantas Points Pig’ 🙂
Would a rewards points sweeping card (westpac altitude black, linked to QFF) count as a rewards program and therefore be excluded?
Spend from 01 – 13 June 2017
Have points credited before 13 July 2017
