Ways to earn Qantas Points
Direct-earn cards send a fixed number of Qantas Points per dollar straight to your Frequent Flyer account each month, which suits Qantas loyalists.
Transfer cards earn their own program's points that you later move to Qantas, usually with several airline partners for more flexibility. And sign-up bonuses can add tens of thousands of points once you meet the spend requirement.
Expert insight: finding Qantas award seats
“Qantas releases a lot more space to its own members than it does to partners, and they do reliably release business class award seats often around 3 months prior to travel.”
Qantas Frequent Flyer points can be used with oneworld partners like Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, British Airways and Cathay Pacific, plus others including Emirates, KLM and Air France.
What to consider, and how to earn more
Check the earn rate per dollar, any points caps, the annual fee, introductory offers, travel perks and the interest and fees. Then decide whether the rewards justify the cost.
To build points faster, put everyday spending like groceries, fuel and bills on the card, watch for partner bonus offers, and shop through the Qantas Shopping portal to earn at hundreds of stores, sometimes earning twice.
