Our Verdict
American Express offered this same transfer bonus in June. At the time Qantas was also offering a bonus of 15-30% to some loyalty members and the two offers stacked. I doubt we will see a stacking offer like that in the near future, so could make sense to transfer now if you have a need or want for more Qantas points.

Came across this just before you posted. Great timing since I needed a last minute very short hop with a stop that was less than 600 miles so it was only 8k Qantas points for one way. Transfered 7k MR and had some left over. Would’ve needed 15k BA or paid the outrageous close-in fee on AA.
There is another target bonus that may stack as well as per Dans Deals
Not much in the way of sweet spots with Qantas points tmk
Its just like BA – Distance based. So short hauls are perfectly fine. Sweet spots? Intra oceania and El Al US-Israel.
