QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic Reward seats?

2 Business reward requests on QF29 MEL-HKG on 11 December and QF30 HKG-MEL on 25 December both rejected by the droid.

Sent to P1 for manual review and both confirmed within an hour.

It is the best perk of P1 imo and having one in the family.

Yes - I've found it impossible as a WP to get J seats on QF30 released - I'm happy to fly in Y for daylight flights so am now using CX163 as the return leg.

You did well to get a QF128 J seat released!

VIP team basically said that P1 Manual reviews for QF29 and QF30 are guaranteed when there are sale fares available.
 
My history over the last couple of years has been:
  • 2 x F QF11 SYD-LAX June 2023 Confirmed by P1
  • 2 x J QF94 LAX-MEL June 2023 Confirmed by Droid
  • 4 x J QF1 SYD-LHR December 2023 Confirmed by P1
  • 4 x J QF2 LHR-SIN January 2024 Confirmed by P1
  • 4 x J QF36 SIN-MEL January 2024 Confirmed by P1
  • 2 x J QF83 SYD-SIN December 2023 Confirmed by Droid
  • 1 x J QF38 SIN-MEL December 2023 Confirmed by P1
  • 2 x J QF87 SYD-ICN November 2024 Confirmed by P1
  • 2 x J QF26 HND-SYD January 2025 Confirmed by Droid (moved to NRT-MEL for free when QF26 was retimed)
  • 2 x J QF29 MEL-HKG December 2025 Confirmed by P1
  • 2 x J QF30 HKG-MEL December 2025 Confirmed by P1
Basically, not looking forward to no more manual reviews after the end of the year but know how fortunate I have been.
Post automatically merged:

Nice! I can't see myself ever making P1 unfortunately.
neither lol, my mum made P1 11 years ago and kept it with work and got to Lifetime Platinum. I use work to maintain platinum but now that she is retired 3600 status credits are too much even using double status promos.
