Classic Plus Fares

Classic Plus fares were introduced by Qantas in 2024. The points cost for these fares is not based on distance (as it is with Classic Reward fares), but on the cash price for the same fare.

These fares have a fixed rate of 1 cent per point - ie. a $1,000 flight will cost 100,000 points. They are generally considered a poor use of points.

20,000 points will net you $200 worth of value.

Points Plus Pay
