Using Qantas frequent flyer points to book Air Vanuatu flights
Turn your hard-earned Qantas Points into a well-deserved holiday with Air Vanuatu, and be whisked away to a tropical island paradise with picture-postcard beaches and some of the world’s best scuba diving. With key destinations within the Pacific Islands on the map – think Vanuatu, Fiji and New Caledonia – your Qantas Points are equally useful for flying between island nations or for the longer trip back to Australia.
Journeys on Air Vanuatu are calculated on the same points tables as Fiji Airways and Qantas itself, meaning you can mix and match your own itinerary with any of those airlines for no extra points. Here’s what you need to know to turn your Qantas Points into a ticket to Vanuatu and beyond.

Booking Air Vanuatu flights with Qantas Points: how many points you’ll need
As with Fiji Airways, Air Vanuatu’s partnership with Qantas means that the number of points needed to book an Air Vanuatu flight is the same as to book a Qantas flight of the same length. This makes the overall rates more favourable than most of Qantas’ other partner airlines.
