Qantas and Emirates recently announced that they would be looking to extend their partnership for a further five years (albeit with a route change or two thrown in) and now, to celebrate the partnership, Qantas is offering double points and double status credits on select routes.

Earn Double Qantas Points On Select Emirates and Qantas Flights

Per Qantas:

Our partnership with Emirates is stronger than ever. Together, we continue to soar and we want you to benefit with double Qantas Points.

So, for 5 days only earn double points when you book an eligible flight operated by Qantas or Emirates with a ‘QF’ flight number on your ticket, for travel between London or Europe and Australia or New Zealand (via Singapore, Dubai or Perth), Singapore or Dubai.

Here’s how to earn double Qantas Points:

• Make a new booking between 4 September and 8 September 2017 for eligible flights with a QF flight number, operated by Qantas or Emirates
• Travel between 18 September 2017 and 6 September 2018
• Include your Qantas Frequent Flyer number in your booking
• Remember, once registered you can make multiple bookings during the promotion.

For the avoidance of doubt, you have to make all your bookings by 11.59pm (AEST) on 8 September 2017.

An Eligible Flight for the purpose of the double Qantas Points offer means any Qantas marketed international flight which is operated by Qantas or Emirates with a QF flight number on your ticket, for travel between Australia or New Zealand and London (via Singapore, Dubai or Perth) or Europe (via Dubai), Singapore or Dubai, where Qantas Points are normally earned.

Thoughts

As I can’t find a landing page for these offers without using the link in an email I received these may well be targeted offers…..but considering I’ve never credited a flight to my Qantas account in my life I’m not sure why I’d be one of the lucky ones.

The mention of the double status credits only being available to “travel taken by the recipient of the original email” would also appear to indicate a high likelihood of this being targeted.

Still, if you’ve received this offer its a nice way to boost your chances of earning/retaining status as well as boosting you Qantas points balance quite nicely too.

Anyone else get this email? Is it targeted or can you guys find a regular landing page – let me know in the comments.
