MEL-PER J upgrade

[alect]

going to be travelling MEL-PER. Is there a way to know/maximise the likelihood of the flights having skybeds instead of domestic J seats?

To use points for upgrade is it just a matter of applying post booking and then if it doesn't clear asking for ODU? or is there a better strategy?

Also assume that initially (for upgrade) I apply my QFF number and if upgrade clears i can change to AAdv number for accrual of points?

Expert flyer is your friend for both finding the seat map out prior to booking and checking if you have the required fare bucket available.
