If you already have a sizable Qantas Points balance, stick with that. If not, I would recommend crediting any flights you take on Qantas to their oneworld alliance partner American Airlines, as their AAdvantage frequent flyer program offers cheaper redemption opportunities. Plus they are running a great bonus points deal this month.
