Philippine Airlines is officially Qantas’ latest airline partner – unlocking a significant number of seats at low Classic Reward rates. The airline joins British Airways, Cathay Pacific, Finnair, Japan Airlines, Malaysia Airlines, Qatar Airways, and more.
We’ll be keeping a close eye on new seats popping up as a result. So, if you’re a Qantas Frequent Flyer, an Amex cardholder, or have PayReward Points you’d like to convert, speak to one of our Reward Travel Specialists to secure a seat.
“Partnering with Philippine Airlines opens up more of Asia and adds 15 destinations previously missing from our partner network,” says Qantas Loyalty CEO, Andrew Glance.
Philippine Airlines travels from Australia to Manila and all across the Philippines. Travellers can then continue onwards through their international network. For example, one could book Classic Reward Seats in Business Class through to New York, with the Manila to New York leg flown on Philippine Airlines. Travellers can expect flights between Manila and North America to cost 182,900 Qantas Points each way in Business Class, or 143,500 points in Premium Economy – only available from Sydney and Melbourne.
The airline is expected to have five A350-1000 aircraft by the end of 2026, each with 42 Mabuhay Business Class Studios with privacy doors. This aircraft will be flying to Chicago, Los Angeles and San Francisco. Meanwhile, the A350s will continue to serve Vancouver and Toronto.
