You usually can convert 2,000 Choice Privileges points to 800 Qantas or Virgin Australia Velocity points, which is doubled to 1,600 for the duration of this offer.
Conclusion
This is a pretty good conversion bonus from Choice Privileges, and I could consider converting excess points to Qantas or Virgin Australia points for domestic Australian travel, where fares are sometimes rather high.
