Convert DBS Points into Qantas Points and get 20% Bonus - until 30 June 2019!
Earlier this month, I wrote about the opportunity to convert your DBS Points into Qantas Points and if you are planning to do so, you can now earn 20% more Qantas Points on transfers between 15 April 2019 and 30 June 2019. 5,000 DBS Points typically convert into 10,000 Qantas Points but under this promotion, you will be getting 12,000 Qantas Points instead.
Do remember that an administrative fee of S$26.75 is levied when converting your DBS Points to your designated airline's programme and the transfer process should take approximately 1-2 weeks. As mentioned in my previous article, here are a few interesting flight redemptions that you may wish to consider with your Qantas Points:
Hong Kong to Taipei on Cathay Pacific First Class (One-way): 26,000 QFF Points
Singapore to Melbourne on Emirates First Class (One-way): 90,000 QFF Points
Singapore to Melbourne on Qantas Business Class (One-way): 60,000 QFF Points

Following the November 2025 devaluation, the value of a KrisFlyer mile has undoubtedly dropped.
