frequent flyer points
Quick question to those in the know. Do you accrue Qantas frequent flyer points on a flight 'paid' for with points? Hope that makes sense!

Re: frequent flyer points
No you won't, not on any frequent flyer rewards program that I know of (and they all operate pretty much the same).
The reasoning is simple - you've earned some points based on cash you've spent, you can't then earn points on points you've already earned ; that'd be 'double-dipping' as such.

Bummer.
Cheers guys. Didn't think you could, but was hoping someone would tell me otherwise.
