Summing up. Even though having 60,000 Qantas Points is not a huge balance, you can still get good value out of it. If you want to fly First Class, aim for an Emirates flight from Sydney to Christchurch. Those interested in Business Class should focus on redemptions within Australia and to New Zealand.

It depends entirely on how you 'spend' those hard-earned points. Make a business class reward booking or upgrade on a domestic flight and your points are worth anywhere between 2.14 and 8.48 cents each.

Qantas is now letting some of its frequent flyers 'buy' another year of status with their points, under the trial of what it calls a 'paid retention' plan. The offer is made to selected members who fall short of having enough status credits to retain Gold or Platinum status (600 and 1200 status credits, respectively).
Each time you hit that 500 status credits threshold Qantas will send an email prompting you to choose how you'd like to take your loyalty bonus. You'll have three months to make your choice known through your QFF account page.
