Qantas Flights
About Qantas
With Qantas, you’ll discover warm Aussie hospitality from the moment you step onboard. As Australia’s national carrier since 1920, Qantas’ success is largely due to its belief that the journey should be as memorable as the destination. And that’s why we love them.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How do I claim Qantas Points?
As a Qantas Frequent Flyer, points are automatically added to your account every time you use your card. You can use the points you’ve earned with whatever payment method that best suits you – this includes using a combination of points and money! In the case of Flight Rewards, just be sure to login to your Frequent Flyer account before you make your booking.
How do I print my boarding pass when I am already checked in?
Good news – for both international and domestic Qantas flights, you don’t need to print your boarding pass, a digital boarding pass will be just as effective. If printing is your preference, no worries; navigate to the Qantas Manage Booking page and find your boarding pass options within the Check-in/Boarding Pass section.
What is the Complimentary Lounge Invitation portal?
Located directly on qantas.com, the Complimentary Lounge Invitation portal is what any eligible customer can use to access their personal invitation. Navigate to the Frequent Flyer drop-down and find the complimentary lounge invitations within ‘The Qantas Club’. The only information you need to enter the portal is your membership number and your PIN.
