Qantanomics, another day another offer from @QantasAirways !

Qantas are on the offensive with new offers for Frequent Flyers in the form of points based on status.  Reading some of the comments from the online sections of the newspapers, it seems to have upset a whole lot of people.  I have attached a copy of the email that I was sent from Sam, head of loyalty.  I would imagine that Sam has had a few sleepless nights over the past few weeks!

Back to the deal from Qantas, on shorter flights, the points offered by Qantas for individual lets are quite small, so they are boosted with a minimum 1,000 Frequent Flyer points for the flight.  As you can see, I get base points of 293. Will Qantas add the 25% “Bonus Points” to the “Base points” or the “Total Points”.  Knowing how Qantas work, I am not sure which way the cards, or in this case the points will fall.
