Western Australia is big. Whether you’re flying Perth to Broome, hopping down to Margaret River, or heading east to explore the rest of the country, having a Qantas Frequent Flyer membership makes travel more rewarding, and right now, you don’t need to pay the usual $99.50 to join. Promotional signup links that waive the fee are available online and open to anyone who uses them.
Why WA Travellers Should Care
Qantas is one of the dominant carriers for WA routes, flights between Perth and the east coast, regional services into the Kimberley, Pilbara, and Goldfields, and international connections through Perth Airport. If you fly any of these routes, even occasionally, you’re leaving free points on the table without a membership.
Beyond flights, points can be used for:
- Accommodation — via Qantas Hotels (handy for Broome, Exmouth, Kalgoorlie, and regional stays)
- Car hire — through Europcar and Hertz when flying into remote WA hubs
- Everyday earning — via Woolworths Everyday Rewards, BP fuel, and partner retailers
- Dining and experiences — through Qantas Dining partners in Perth
- Free flights – We all know WA gets shafted by airlines for flight prices, so why not use points to pay!
How to Sign Up for Free
Qantas distributes promotional join links through partner organisations — banks, media outlets, retailers, and loyalty programs. These links bypass the standard fee, and while they’re often promoted to specific groups, they’re generally not restricted and can be used by anyone.
