Ein interessantes Konzept für die Airline um möglichst schnell viele Meilen aus dem Verkehr zu ziehen, FFP-Mitglieder mit einem exklusivem Event zu ködern und (vermutlich) den A380 kostengünstig zu repositionieren. Und Kunden mit einem flexiblen Zeitplan freuen sich über ungeahnte Award-Verfügbarkeiten, zumal da gerade Rugby World Cup ist:

Qantas has announced the first of a series of dedicated Frequent Flyer redemption flights across its network with seats only available to members redeeming Qantas Points.The inaugural Points Plane will be an Airbus A380 operating from Melbourne to Tokyo (Narita) on 21 October 2019, with Qantas Frequent Flyers able to book seats from Thursday 16 May.
The concept is one of many Qantas Loyalty is exploring to reward Qantas Frequent Flyer members and provide even more redemption opportunities.

Members will be able to book any seat on board (14 First, 64 Business, 35 Premium Economy and 371 Economy seats) at the standard Qantas Points redemption rate for the route. Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum members will all have equal opportunity to secure a booking on dedicated Points Plane flights.

To maximise flexibility on return travel, members have the choice of booking on an A330 return Points Plane on October 26[SUP]th[/SUP] or depart on an alternative date of their choice by booking a Classic Reward seat with Qantas or a partner airline, or using Points Plus Pay on any commercially available seat.

The inaugural Points Plane will also have a distinctive inflight service with special on-board experiences including a bespoke cocktail and meal service, signature pyjamas and inflight giveaways.

Qantas Loyalty CEO Olivia Wirth said that flight redemptions are Qantas Frequent Flyer members’ favourite way to use their Qantas Points. “This is the first time we have dedicated an entire aircraft – let alone an A380 – to our frequent flyers, and we are expecting to see significant demand for these flights,” Ms Wirth said.

Die Preise sind analog zum regulären Award-Chart:

Qantas Points required for booking seats on the inaugural Points Plane:

  • Economy 35,000 Qantas Points*
  • Premium Economy 54,000 Qantas Points*
  • Business 72,000 Qantas Points*
  • First 108,000 Qantas Points*
*Plus taxes fees and carrier charges. Subject to availability, accurate as at 13 May 2019 date. conditions apply.

Ja und Nein, man bekommt ja für jede Kreditkarte hier zwischen 60.000 und 130.000 Qantaspunkte nur für die Anmeldung, da sind also sehr sehr viele Qantaspunkte im Umlauf.

Aber macht schon Sinn einen ansonsten leeren Flug so zu nutzen.

Am 26.5 gibt es auch eine QF5 nach LHR, weil der Flieger da 'gebucht' ist.
