The Highlights

The Qantas Frequent Flyer program is the loyalty program for Qantas Airlines, the largest airline in Australia. Qantas flies to 20 domestic destinations and 21 international destinations in 14 countries across Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe and Oceania.

Qantas is part of the Oneworld alliance, so you’ll earn miles flying Qantas or any of its partners, including American Airlines, British Airways and Cathay Pacific. You can also transfer your Capital One miles to the Qantas Frequent Flyer program at a 2:1.5 ratio and your Citi ThankYou points at a 1:1 ratio.

You’ll get the most bang for your buck when using your Qantas miles for flights. But your miles can also be redeemed for hotel stays and car rentals. This program has 5 tiers of membership: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum and Platinum One. You’ll move up the tiers as you earn status credits from paid flights. Perks at the higher tiers include seat upgrades, access to airport lounges and waived booking fees.

Bottom Line: Although Qantas is an Australian airline, its miles can be used for flights on other Oneworld alliance partners like American Airlines, British Airways and Cathay Pacific. The Qantas Frequent Flyer program is also worth considering because you can transfer Capital One miles and Citi ThankYou points to it.
