    I've got a spend $500, get $30 back. 😞

    • +1

      That is not good at all 😞. Post updated, thanks.

      • No worries, thanks for the great post, I'm sure it'll still help many ppl out 😉

  • 500/50 on Explorer primary only. Great offer for anyone with 500/150 and travelling. I've generally found QF hotels to pull same inventory and rates as elsewhere but, check the hotel costs before you book. Thanks for the deal post OP :)

    • I've found them to have less options at much higher costs. I'm struggling to use $50 vouchers I have because they're always more than $50 above competitors.

  • +1

    I've got the $30 offer from Platinum Charge card, but $150 from the accompanied Reserve Card

    • same here

  • $500 / $30 back on my discovery
    $500 / $150 back on the explorer

  • +2

    Got the $150 with my Platinum Edge. Interesting I got the headline offer despite having a lower tier card compared to some of the other commenters so far. :)

    • Same here. Was kinda expecting to get the $30 offer on this card.

      Now to see if I can get comparable hotel rates on Qantas hotel.

  • Got $500 -$150 on both explorer and platinum edge ✌️

  • +1

    Got 500/150 on the Qantas Ultimate

    • Same for me

  • No Qantas offer for me.

  • +1

    Nothing on the plat charge

  • +1

    Just $30 offer for myself.

    Suspect because i used the $100 offer last year.

    • no way. I used the same offer but nothing this time. (Qantas Ultimate)

  • +1

    Nothing for plat charge

  • +1

    all the offer does is make qantas hotels of a similar price to the cheapest advertised…….. not really a deal

    • @ MrThing
      The 500/150 Deal or ?

      • +1

        if your spending $500 on a hotel room on qantas hotels and only getting $30 back, its likely you are still paying more than shopping around

        is you get $150 back you might be marginally ahead

        just from my experiences when I am looking for hotels, Qantas hotels is always the highest price. cheapest always being some random website offering no refunds across the board with cc surcharges

        • Thanks for detailed response
          Did get the 500/150
          So will check it out.

    • Nah I checked depending on the hotels and location the prices aren’t always so different but you have to compare so you do save.

    • I made a booking directly with a hotel last night - cost of room was $900
      Checked qantas hotels today, cost of same room $897 with some other perks thrown in

      Worth the free cancellation and rebooking via qantas for me

    • depend on the hotel, they use expedia, some are more expensive than expedia, but most of the time they are similar in price.

  • $500 / $30 Amex Qantas
    $500 / $150 Amex Plat

  • Got 500/150 plat charge. I’ve been spending a lot on that card last few months. 5k a month for 6 months I think. If that means anything. Point is I’ve been using it and go the offer I think it might be one of the best offers for a long time.

    • Doesn't really mean anything tbh. I have been over that each month and got 500/30.

      But also we have a second new platinum card and nothing in that

  • Nothing on Explorer Business
    $150 on Plat Business

  • Can we use it on airbnb as its showing at qantas?

    • +1

      There is a hotel tab and airbnb tab with Qantas. Terms exclude AirBnB

    • ? 500 is like one or two nights in any standard hotel.

      • -6

        500 could go a long way towards food and entertainment. If you stay in your room all day then you may as well just stay home. No, I don't get resorts either.

        • +1

          Why spend on food/entertainment when that money goes a long way towards buying groceries and Home entertainment.

          • @ThePeterGriffin: It's cheaper to eat in other country sometimes. Air fares are discounted and offset by GST credits.

            • @CptnObvious: Sure. Leme book a flight to get my dinner - cHeaPer

              • @ThePeterGriffin: 400 return airfare (Bali/Thailand), 25/night hostel, 20/day food allowance is plenty for a good time, and being able to absorb local culture and scenery. Flipping phones purchased on discounts, inc. TRS returns easily gets you close to break even. I also work remotely from the hostel or on the mobile so I don't lose annual leave.

                It's all about the challenge of paying minimal for a holiday that makes a holiday all that worthwhile.

  • Cheers OP. Have this on my Explorer card (500/150)

  • $500-$150 on Plat Charge

  • I looked at a couple of hotels in Europe, and Qantas was consistently $150 or more than the direct booking price. Also, direct bookings were refundable, Qantas website was not.
    Definitely shop around for the bargains.

    • Nah I looked around for Southeast Asia and it’s almost always the same or tiny bit more. It’s the same with different booking platforms. Sometimes Agoda is cheaper sometimes Booking.

  • $500/$150 on green charge card.

  • +1

    Key thing to remember is it's one or more transactions. This means you don't need to just have the one booking, but can spread the 500 spend over multiple bookings.

    • thanks, I thought I must have one invoice billed at a minimum of $500 to get $150 back

  • Got $50 off on my Qantas platinum card

  • Does anyone know if it stacks with the Qantas hotel and holidays vouchers?

  • +1

    Probably not surprising that I got nothing on my Velocity Platinum Amex :D

    • 😀

  • Got $500/$15 on Qantas Business Rewards Card

    • +2

      You win the prize for the worst offer!

  • Does it stack with voucher through points club?

    • +1

      As long as you spend the $500 on Amex, eg $600 less $100 voucher for $500 spend. Did it in 2023, and no reason for it not too.

      As a side note, got points club plus and the vouchers were the only things i used (didnt even fly for the lounge 😞 )

    • Hmm does that mean flights only?

      • Hotels only. No airbnb nor hotel packages.

  • +2

    I got 500/150 on my Explorer card and it stacks with the $400 travel voucher. I'm going to Las Vegas and New York in August so I can take advantage of this offer!

    Thanks OP! :)

    • Is that the explorer $400 travel credit you’re referring to?

      • Yeah… I assumed that's what the T's & C's meant by "Voucher"… But now you've referred to it (righly) as the Travel Credit, I think I am wrong!

        I haven't tried to book yet though so maybe I am wrong to think I can use the travel credit. I'll update in a few days when I book.

  • I only got 500/50 ….why??

  • +1

    If you've booked a 'deposit now, pay balance later' rate on one of their hotels, just jump on live chat and ask them to process the payment (expires 31 Jan)

  • I got a $30 and a $50 - wouldn’t mind if it was on Qantas Flights but on Hotels and Holidays - no deal
