"We’re pleased to welcome Uber as one of our frequent flyer partners. We know it’s a service our customers already like using and now they have the ability to earn Qantas Points on their rides to and from the airport," said Qantas chief customer officer Olivia Wirth.
"Our focus is how we can make people’s entire journey more seamless, and incorporating the option to order an Uber through our app helps do that."
