Qantas is offering its members 1,000 bonus Qantas Points when making a new Airbnb booking. The booking need to be made through the Qantas airbnb booking portal between November 27 and December 4 2018.
The 1,000 bonus points is on top of the usual 1 point per $1 that you would normally receive. (You also earn 500 Qantas Points for your first Airbnb booking)
With the holiday season looming, this could be an easy way to boost your points balance if you were planning a stay at an Airbnb.
It can take up to 8 weeks for the points to be credited to your account. Hopefully you aren’t in too much of a hurry for the points.
Qantas and Airbnb
Qantas and Airbnb first began points earning partnership in October 2016. Under the partnership, members can earn a standard 1 Qantas Points per dollar on their bookings. In order to get the points, you do need to begin you search at the Qantas Airbnb page.

- You will earn 1 Qantas Point per Australian Dollar spent on the final value of the guest fees of your booking after any adjustments
- If you cancel the booking, then you won’t earn any points
