Flying with Qantas and Jetstar
One of the most obvious ways to earn Qantas points is by flying. The amount of points earned for a Qantas flight is based on the distance travelled and fare type. You can find the earn rate for your flight using Qantas’ Earn Points Calculator.
If you are flying Jetstar you will need to purchase a bundled fare (either Starter Plus, Starter Max, or Business Max) to earn Qantas Points. Find out more in our guide to earning Qantas Points and Status Credits flying with Jetstar.
Plus, elite status members receive points bonus on eligible Qantas and Jetstar flights. Silver members receive a 50% bonus, Gold 75% and Platinum and Platinum One members receive a 100% bonus.

Another quick and easy way to earn free Qantas points is with Qantas’ Health Insurance switching assistant. By simply ticking a few boxes and receiving a short phone call, you can earn 1,000 Qantas points. All up, the survey and phone call took me around 5 minutes. The Qantas representative simply asked me to confirm my details so she could send me the points, then asked me if I would like her to provide a health insurance quote, which I declined, and that was it! You can also earn up to 120,000 points if you decide to take out a Health Insurance plan with Qantas Health Insurance.
