    As a Flying Blue member, you earn Experience Points (XP) on eligible flights marketed and operated by Qantas. Earning rules may vary for specific routes or fare classes — verify on the Flying Blue website.

    Verify Current Earning Rules

    Qantas is not a SkyTeam member — XP earnings may differ from the standard table or depend on specific routes and fare classes. Always check the official Flying Blue website before booking.

    You earn Miles based on the distance flown and your booking class percentage.
    XP and Miles are credited after the flight is completed.
    Ensure your Flying Blue number is added to your reservation before flying.
