TBH, unless it's a J->F upgrade, this probably won't concern most ÜW's and hence not affect WP's much....
I can see upgrades can potentially be consumed by all P1's, leaving nothing for others.
OT - Such is only available to those with special member numbers of the format xx_xx_.OT - how do you get a status credit balance of 1234 (for the year as opposed to lifetime)?LOL
Yes!Going over the website but am not finding it (probably my appalling search skills ) but do you need to have the required number of miles when you do the request or is it ok if the miles will hit your account by the time the request gets processed?
It can depend on your status:Does this still mean the upgrade (if available) is not notified until 24 hours before?.
International Flight Upgrade Awards
If you hold an eligible confirmed ticket, which may be a Qantas & Jetstar Any Seat Award, for a Qantas operated service with a QF flight number, you may be able to register for an international Flight Award Upgrade. Please note however that Flight Upgrades Awards are not available on Qantas & Partner Classic Awards or airfares booked in E, N, O, P, Q or X class, which includes some Red e-Deal fares.
International Flight Upgrade Awards may be requested any time after you have received your e-Ticket itinerary and receipt between 353 days and 24 hours before scheduled departure of your flight. Requests will not be accepted within 24 hours of scheduled departure of the flight.
Flight Upgrade Awards will not be confirmed on international services at time of booking or when your registration is received. Requests for Flight Upgrade Awards on international services will be considered in accordance with the following timetable:
- Platinum One Frequent Flyers, from up to 7 days prior to scheduled departure
- Platinum Frequent Flyers or higher, from 48 hours prior to scheduled departure
- All Frequent Flyers, within 24 hours of scheduled departure.
Yes!
Thinking about this - it certainly is the case for online requests, but ISTR reports of members calling up to submit a request while not having sufficient points (at the time).Pfff will have to wait for the Westpac bonus to hit my account then .... Or find a relative with some spare points

Just been on hold for 15 minutes whilst the agent was figuring it out and you have to have the needed points amount when doing the request. Which then has the added question what if I have the points then buy another JASA taking me under again but no answer if the request is then cancelled automatically. I wouldn't want to lock in the 40000 for a year...
