Register to earn double Qantas Points on flights to the US [targeted]
I received the following email from Qantas Frequent Flyer:

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.

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.

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.

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:
- Record your weight in the online diary at least once a week for 12 consecutive weeks, within the week of your scheduled weigh-in
- Upload a photo of yourself every week for the 12 week program via your private weight tracker within the website
- Achieve a net weight loss over the 12 weeks
- Complete a program completion survey
- Contact the customer service team within 14 days of completing the program
- 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

You’ll receive the bonus points ‘approximately 2-3 months after meeting the join and contribution criteria.’
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

Ongoing opportunities to boost your Qantas Points balance
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
