Forums Frequent flyer programs British Airways Executive Club OWE benefits on a Qantas flight number flown on “3K”? Urgent question

  • 41 posts

    Hi all,

    Wife and I are booking a Bali trip as part of a return leg from a UK -> AU/NZ roundtrip. Most of the journey out to AU is on QF native flight numbers/metal : trip is LON-SIN-SYD-AKL, then AKL-DSP-SIN-LON.

    There is one leg between DSP-SIN that is listed as a QF5150 operated by “3K” which i think is Jetstar Asia. Given we are Oneworld Sapphire (BA Silver) we intended to use our benefits including extra luggage peice throughout. Are those benefits going to apply, as with QF flight numbers I had assumed it would?

    However, have been caught out by this previously with QF flight number on an Emirates flight.

    I known Jetstar have been announced within Oneworld’s network but not clear on if the benefits and advance seat booking etc will apply. Anyone who can outline their experience on this or clarify on this would be appreciated.

    Would look at terms of ticket – but you don’t get benefits of One World emerald status as standard on Jet Star.

    I think only QF OWE/OWS get any benefits on Jetstar which is outside OneWorld so doesn’t offer any benefits to other OW airlines. The QF code is meaningless for benefits.

    Can you please clarify? All the flights are on QF natively essentially except that one, which is QF5150 (operated by 3K). Also saw this: https://es.oneworld.com/news/jetstar-network-now-available-via-oneworld-fares

    Are you OWE with Qantas? That is the only way you can get the benefits of OWE on Jetstar. Not with BA, Cathay, Finnair etc.
