Well done QF009 - I would be interested in how you did it and how much quicker it is than either QANTAS or a Star Alliance carrier?

cheers - SPRUCE

66,666 BISM at Full economy or above is the usual way.

Or substantially more BISM's at discount economy.

QF WP is easier to earn and retian, however the earn/burn of QF miles is the factor people move to AA.

Don't think so unfortunately, then again given that I don't get miles/EQPs on their flights either I won't be rushing to jump on a 1* flight anytime soon.

v8Statesman is spot on. I would've made WP back in March had I credited to QFF but have found AAdvantage better value for my needs.
