[fletty]

Success for 2x pax BNE-MEL in whY 25th October. Flights were $350pp (not sure why so expensive) so good value for once with points.

Australian School Holidays periods are notorious for it being much harder to obtain any award availability.

I checked using the flightseats.io Qantas Platinum Classic Reward Request Tool, which looks for availability of sale and saver fares. Unfortunately it's not looking good, but it never hurts to ring and ask.

The requirement for P1 to do release is D booking class. And you can request for a manual review if the bot declines as well.

As for youe timing, the flights themselves would have barely been loaded so it usually takes a little bit before discounted booking codes show up if they're not there today.

You can request for QF2, QF10. If you're willing to reposition to Rome or Paris then the Qantas flights from those city would also be on the cards (plus cheaper too as it won't have LHR departure tax).
