Great news, Qantas Frequent Flyers members!
You can now use your points to book reward seats to more than 20 destinations across Thailand and South East Asia thanks to Qantas’ new partnership with Bangkok Airways.
Bangkok Airways flies from its Bangkok hub to popular spots around the region.
Aussie travellers will be able to connect from Qantas and Jetstar flights to Bangkok, Phuket and Singapore.
Qantas Loyalty CEO Olivia Wirth said Qantas Frequent Flyer was excited to welcome Bangkok Airways to the program.
“Thailand is one of the most popular destinations for our frequent flyers and this partnership will make it easier for them to explore more of the region using their points,” she said.
Bangkok Airways reward seats start from 10,000 points in economy or 20,000 in business class.
There seem to be some glitches in the system today as prices don’t quite match up with the Qantas Partner Reward Table and no business class seats are visible (though the latter may be intentional).
Bangkok Airways economy fares include checked baggage.
The airline has a good reputation for customer service and comfort, and is a great choice for flying around Thailand and the region.
