Qantas Airlines
Australia’s Qantas Airlines is a transfer partner of American Express Membership Rewards. The ratio for transfers is 1:1. You can transfer Amex points to Qantas in increments of 500 points. Qantas points are extremely useful as Qantas is part of the OneWorld Alliance. After logging into my Amex account, I saw this transfer bonus after looking at the transfer partners on my American Express Gold Card. The card currently has a 40,000 Membership Rewards bonus as well as the limited-edition Rose Gold version available via referral.
Amex-Qantas Transfer Bonus
Every now and then, American Express Membership Rewards offers increased transfer ratios for some of their airline or hotel partners. With the current transfer bonus, you’ll get an extra 20% Qantas points for transferring your Amex points to Qantas. For every 500 Amex points that you transfer, you’ll get 600 Qantas points. This promotional offer ends on June 30th.
Terms and Conditions
- You must link your Membership Rewards account to Qantas before you transfer your miles
- Transfers must be for a minimum of 500 points and in 500 point increments
- You must be a member of the Qantas Frequent Flyer program in order to be able to transfer the points
- Promotional offer ends on June 30th at 11:59 MT
- Bonus Qantas Points will be credited to the member’s Qantas Frequent Flyer account within 48 hours from the confirmed transfer
- Bonus Points will only be applied to Qantas Points transfer once. In the event of multiple Bonus Points transfer offers in market for the same offer period, eligible Members will be provided with the highest Bonus Points offer.
The Pundit’s Mantra
Qantas points can be extremely useful for short hops within the US on American Airlines or for short trips within Australia. Since their chart is distance based, there are plenty of sweet spots that you can find on their One World partners if you’re looking to travel places where Qantas doesn’t currently fly. Here’s the link to their award charts.
