Following the news that Qantas were going to remove the joining fee for Kiwis to join Qantas Frequent Flyer, it will leave Australians as the only ones paying a joining fee.
At almost $100 it is pretty steep. And lets face it, very few other programs charge a fee just to join.
The good news is that there are ways around the fee, meaning you can actually join for free.
How to join for free
Qantas offer a number of promotions offering free membership to the program. Sometimes, Qantas offer the promotion, and sometimes it is through one of their Qantas Frequent Flyer partners.
One such link that has been promoted is this link. Just follow the link, complete the application form and accept the terms and conditions of the program. This offer is available to all Australian residents who are not already Qantas Frequent Flyer members.
There are also a number of other codes where you can sign up to Qantas Frequent Flyer for free. These codes are often promoted by a Qantas Frequent Flyer partner to their own customers. however, there seems little to stop anyone using them.
The following is list of Qantas Frequent Flyer free membership links that have been collected through various promotions:

The Qantas Frequent Flyer Program
There are good reasons for the Qantas Frequent Flyer Program being one of the most popular loyalty programs in Australia.
One reason is that you don’t even need to fly to earn points. Qantas has partnered with a range of everyday business to allow you to earn points.
This makes it very easy to earn Qantas Frequent Flyer points as part of an everyday routine. For example, you can earn Qantas points through your credit card spend. You can earn Qantas Points when you buy your groceries at Woolworths. There are no shortage of businesses offering Qantas Points.
Once you have earned the points, you can then use them in a number of ways. While getting an award flight for travel is a popular use, there are many other options.
That’s all good, but what about the $99.50 joining fee? Fortunately, Qantas have a number of promotion codes around that you can use to join for free – saving you $99.50.
Final Words
In conclusion, with the range of ways available to join Qantas Frequent Flyer for free, there’s really no reason why anyone should be paying $99.50.
