Qantas Economy Plus Launching Feb 2026

I had the same with a flight BNE-MEL during the booking process, no seat selection possible (error)
However, once booked, I could select seats as normal.
 
I've just checked a few bookings and my goodness, Qantas seat selection has become complex.

Looking at my CDG-PER-MEL flight in June, CDG-PER on the 789 has three categories of 'forward zone' seats (only two of which are free as SG), while on PER-MEL there are now two categories of Economy Plus (brown up the front which now start at row 7 rather than row 8, green for the exit rows; row 6 is not visible) and two categories of forward zone. As a SG, the blue economy plus in row 4 is not visible.
 
I’m seeing the new 737 Y+ as mentioned earlier plus the old now showing as this (inside T-80).

Just out of interest I checked my flight for tomorrow and they have another different colour for row 4 until economy plus launches.

Whats the earliest date people are seeing Economy Plus and Forward Seat, versus Extra Legroom.

More choices than LH Allegris class.
 
Weird having Econ Plus in Rows 17 and 18. Had anyone noticed they had more room. Assume it's more to do with window and exit rows alignments.
