I initially said yes, but then realised I don't actually like Keith Urban or country music, so would not have enjoyed it.
Not sure if it's because of my P1 status or not. However, I have been invited on the inaugural Qantas flight to DXB on 31st March from SYD. Also includes "Gala Dinner" & several events in Dubai.
I'm not one for doing trip reports at all, but I will tweet a few pics for those interested.

AReceived three invites to events - F1, Les Miserables and Keith Urban. For a variety of reasons didn't make any of them.
Should have taken 4B out of sheer bloody-mindedness.Here's a P1 experience for you.
Booked BNE-CBR-BNE for tomorrow. Had 4C selected from the time the flights were booked. Went to OLCI today and I was in 5C on the way back ... had a look and luckily 4D was available. Who wants a bet on whether it's a CL in 4C tomorrow or not (being Canberra there's a reasonable chance, but I won't be surprised if it's a bronze ... or crew).

In first?

Question for those in the know;
What success rate have WP1 folks had in getting award seats released?
Would in the opinion on those who have had seats released consider it a significantly better prospect than a WP+PG?
Case in point, 2 adults , 2 kids who want to fly in J Mel/lax rtn - flexible dates with 365 days notice.
In regards to releasing seats, I assume they release classic rewards not ASAs?
Thanks in advance for those WP1's who have been down the seat release path and can share their experience.

To the P1 AFFers
Has you ever rung up to request a points upgrade (Y to J, or J to F) and if so, what has been your experience ?
Most comments so far were related to Award seats being requested / released on demand.
Assuming you had a positive response, how far out from departure date did QF accommodate your requested points upgrade?
Cheers
I tried and failed to get a points upgrade for BNE-LHR-BNE last year from Y to Y+ or J for 4 passengers; it was the school holidays though. I've had more luck in requesting classic seats to be available for points bookings rather than points upgrades (to answer a separate question, yes they release additional classic award seats for P1s rather than ASAs - which are nearly always available but the points "price" increases as supply falls.
Having tried and failed to get points upgrades for my family, I did then score an op-up for all four of us from Y+ to J on a separate points booking from BNE-SIN. I'm always far happier to get op-ups when travelling with the family than for my usual solo travel, as it means my family get some benefit from all my travelling (c. 4-5,000 SCs pa)
I'd kill for an F1 invite
