New benefits and program changes coming to Qantas Frequent Flyer

Latest News|Published 22 January 2025

Over the next 12 months, Qantas will be introducing a series of updates and enhancements to the Qantas Frequent Flyer program. These changes will give our mutual customers access to more premium cabin reward seats on partner airlines, lower reward seat fares on Jetstar and the ability to earn more points when flying with Qantas. 

There will also be some increases to our Classic Flight Reward fares to help ensure we can continue to invest in enhancing the program.

What’s New:

  • Earn More Points: Frequent flyers will earn up to 25% more points on the base earn on domestic Qantas flights, with no Status bonus cap for tiered members flying in premium cabins— set to deliver almost 4 billion extra points for members each year.
  • More rewards with Jetstar: For the first time, members will be able to use their Qantas Points to upgrade to Business on Jetstar international flights. This coincides with a major revamp of Jetstar’s Boeing 787 Dreamliners that will double the fleet’s business cabin capacity.  Starting from next year.
  • More premium reward seats with partner airlines: Up to 1 million additional reward seats, including with new partners like Finnair, Air France, KLM, Iberia, and Hawaiian Airlines, adding more options to popular destinations like Honolulu.
  • Changes to points required for Classic Flight Rewards and Classic Upgrade Rewards: Reducing the amount of points required for Classic Flight Rewards on all Jetstar short haul* domestic flights by 11%. 
  • There will also be some increases to our Classic Flight Reward fares - the first in six years. This change will help ensure we can continue investing in the program and provide ongoing value for our members now and in the future. 

With increased seat availability, better rewards, and wider destination options, unlock greater flexibility for your customers.
