        "body": "A Sunshine Coast woman has brought attention to a seemingly little known rule in airline loyalty programs.\n\nJulie Jenner was shocked to discover her and her late husband's Qantas Frequent Flyer points had been cancelled upon his death.\n\nJenner, who tragically lost both her husband and her youngest son in the same year, shared her story with ABC, explaining she had only realised what had happened when she went to transfer her points to her grandchildren so they could use them on flights to visit her.\n\nShe said she had shared a bank account with her husband, Thomas, and they both accumulated the points together, but he was the primary Frequent Flyer member.\n\nJenner estimated they only had about 2000 to 3000 points, but believed it was only fair they were transferred to her instead of being cancelled.\n\n\"I was the one who did 90 per cent of the shopping ... so I was accruing the points all right,\" she told ABC.\n\nAccording to the Qantas Frequent Flyer terms and conditions, membership is terminated automatically when someone dies and all their points are cancelled.\n\nNews.com.au contacted Qantas for comment and was directed to this policy.\n\nIt is understood if a couple holds a joint points-earning credit card, the Qantas Points will be credited to the account of the primary card holder.\n\nJenner warned others to check the fine print before entering into an agreement.\n\n\"People need to be aware that if they think their points are going to go across to their husband or their wife or their lifelong partners, they've got another thing coming,\" she said.\n\nVirgin Australia's loyalty program Velocity Frequent Flyer allows points to be transferred within 12 months of a member's death.\n\nLike Qantas, other popular airline loyalty programs including Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer, Cathay Pacific Asia Miles, British Airways Executive Club, Etihad Guest and Emirates Skywards terminate memberships upon death and miles/points are cancelled.\n\nAt the latter two, Etihad and Emirates may at their \"sole discretion\" reinstate miles to the member's legal beneficiaries if asked.\n\nIn response to Jenner's story, some readers criticised Qantas for showing \"zero empathy\" and being \"typically uncaring\".\n\nHowever, many suggested 2000-3000 points were worth so little it wasn't worth fighting for.\n\nIn Jenner's defence, one person wrote: \"It might not be a huge amount of points, but it's the principle of the situation that makes Qantas look bad. It can be said it is only a few points/$10 for Qantas too and not going to hurt their bottom line as well.\"\n\n\"Imagine if they had 800,000 points, Qantas would still do the same, how would you feel if it was you?\" argued another.",

        "title": "Lunes 20 de Marzo de 2023 El presidente inauguró el primer edificio del nuevo campus de la Universidad Nacional del Oeste",
        "body": "El presidente Alberto Fernández inauguró este mediodía el edificio de la Escuela de Ciencias de la Salud, el primero que entrará en funcionamiento en el nuevo campus de la Universidad Nacional del Oeste (UNO), en el municipio bonaerense de Merlo, y que beneficiará a 6.500 estudiantes de la Licenciatura en Enfermería.\n\nAl recordar que hoy se cumplen tres años de las medidas de aislamiento social para evitar la circulación y contagio del virus COVID-19, el Presidente destacó que, desde entonces, \"estamos poniendo en pie y mejorando el sistema de salud de Argentina, educando enfermeros y enfermeras para que puedan brindar en la salud pública la atención a cada argentino y argentina que lo necesite\".\n\n\"Vamos a estar eternamente agradecidos por el esfuerzo que hicieron los profesionales de la salud durante esa epopeya\", expresó el mandatario y puso en valor que con la inauguración del nuevo edificio donde realizarán su formación 6.500 estudiantes de la Licenciatura en Enfermería \"vamos a tener gente mejor preparada, mejor calificada y más reconocida\".\n\nEn ese sentido, recordó que desde el oficialismo \"enviamos al Congreso el proyecto de Ley de Enfermería para reconocer la carrera como licenciatura, porque los y las enfermeras no son personal administrativo, son profesionales de la salud, y eso es ponerlos en el lugar adecuado por el servicio que brindan\".\n\nEl mandatario subrayó: \"Para nosotros la educación pública es un enorme mecanismo para ampliar derechos. Y lo mismo con la salud pública\".\n\nDirigiéndose a las y los asistentes, el jefe de Estado les instó a \"que no pierdan el aliento, que perciban y que vean. Porque ese desaliento atenta directamente contra la credibilidad de la política. Y todos sentimos que todo lo que pasa es culpa de la política. Pero les pido que reflexionen porque, en medio de tanto barullo, hay dos miradas de país\".\n\nY concluyó: \"No somos todo lo mismo. A nosotros, que alguien no acceda a la educación pública, nos duele; un problema de salud de alguien más, nos duele. Pero para otros, es un problema del mercado\".\n\nEl mandatario estuvo acompañado por los ministros de Obras Públicas, Gabriel Katopodis, y de Educación, Jaime Perczyk; la intendenta de Merlo, Karina Menéndez; el rector de la UNO, Roberto Gallo; y el presidente del Grupo Banco Provincia, Gustavo Menéndez.\n\nLa obra, que forma parte del Programa Nacional de Infraestructura Universitaria, demandó una inversión de 344 millones de pesos que contó con financiamiento del Banco de Desarrollo de América Latina (CAF). El edificio se destinará a los estudiantes de la Licenciatura en Enfermería, una carrera que viene expandiendo la matrícula desde su creación, en 2012.\n\nPerczyk destacó la \"decisión política del Presidente de impulsar durante la pandemia un programa federal de infraestructura universitaria, algo que no existía antes\", y precisó que \"lo primero eran aulas, laboratorios y bibliotecas, porque queríamos que haya más chicas y chicos en la universidad\".\n\n\"Somos un gobierno que cree que la universidad es parte de la solución y de la plataforma para construir un país con trabajo y producción\", recalcó y aseguró que \"los edificios que estamos haciendo son para que a la universidad vayan todas y todos, a cualquier edad y en cualquier lugar donde vivan\".\n\nLa Intendenta resaltó que \"éstas son las obras que nos transforman\", y subrayó que \"los últimos tres años históricamente se hicieron las obras que hace más de 50 que no se hacían en la provincia, y eso es porque tenemos un Presidente que apuesta y que pelea permanentemente para que los bonaerenses tengamos el presupuesto que tanto nos merecemos. El juicio a la Corte no es por capricho, es por los derechos que nos están quitando a los bonaerenses y a los argentinos\".\n\nPor su parte, el rector de la UNO aseguró que desde el Gobierno Nacional \"hubo un apoyo sostenido a las universidades y a la política de investigación\", y agradeció al Presidente por \"fomentar carreras y obras estratégicas que contribuirán con el desarrollo del país, y por la ampliación de la política de becas que fortalece la función social de nuestras instituciones en cuanto al bienestar universitario y genera oportunidades de inclusión social y laboral para nuestros jóvenes estudiantes\".\n\nEn tanto, el presidente del Grupo Banco Provincia, remarcó que \"en estos tres años la enorme cantidad de infraestructura que se ha hecho nos permite soñar con la posibilidad de que Merlo deje definitivamente de ser una ciudad dormitorio. Ahora, para estudiar ya no nos vamos a tener que ir de acá, porque más de 23 mil estudiantes están inscriptos en la Universidad Nacional del Oeste\".\n\nEl Programa Nacional de Infraestructura comprende la ejecución de 167 intervenciones que benefician a más de 1,5 millón de estudiantes y docentes en todo el país con una inversión de más de 50.060 millones de pesos.\n\nTambién participaron de la actividad el ministro de Desarrollo Territorial y Hábitat, Santiago Maggiotti; el secretario general de la Presidencia, Julio Vitobello; el secretario de Políticas Universitarias, Oscar Alpa; el director general de Cultura y Educación bonaerense, Alberto Sileoni; el vicerrector de la Universidad Nacional del Oeste, Gustavo Soos; la decana de la Escuela de Ciencias de la Salud, Alicia Mateos; y la secretaria de gestión curricular, Susana Bagnato.",
