Yes, eligible flights taken for business purposes by owners, directors, officers, employees, contractors, consultants, partners and principals could count towards the calculation of Qantas Points for a business, provided that your business' ABN and their Frequent Flyer number is added to their bookings.
The number of Qantas Points for each eligible flight is calculated by applying the percentage earn rate for your business' membership level contained in the Qantas Business Rewards airline earn table to the number of Qantas Points usually earned on that flight by a Bronze Qantas Frequent Flyer member (regardless of the membership tier of the actual traveller), excluding any bonus Qantas Points which may be offered from time to time.
