Qantas Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

J (sale) to F on tonight’s QF12 as WP, notified around T-27. I think the furious refreshing of the flight loads page helped. Hoping the new pyjamas will feature on this flight! Has anyone seen them yet?

I had two immediate thoughts upon seeing this post...

1. Nice "trunks"
2. Hey! My eyes are down here.

ROFL.. that would have been better. It would certainly break the ice in the upstairs deck. Who is your supplier, markis10? I’ll order one when I get home.

Previous pyjamas, previous non-Aesop kit, and not VH-OQC. Life is good! Happy travels everyone.

Success at T-60 Y to J on QF67 SYD-BLR as a WP1

Was getting a bit nervous when it didn’t clear 7 days out

5 seats remain

 

[sudoer]

P1 request for my P2 (WP) both legs booked in Flex Y

SYD-BKK J1 C0 T5 ... Y+ upgrade came through T-20, J1 remained until an hour before boarding then filled

BKK-SYD J9 C9 D9 I9 ... perfect candidate for 7 days out, but came through T-72

Success BNE-CNS Y (red eDeal) to J at T-72 as a PS (Classic Upgrade Reward)

This trip will tip me over to SG so thought I would treat myself

Success SYD-SFO - Y Saver to J using points. T-27

SYD-HND Y sale to J T-27 using points as WP.

Y sale

Y saver maybe? International Y sale isn't upgradable

Oops you're right. It was a Y flex fare.

QF71 PER - SIN (Saver Fare) upgrade came T-24 as P1. Looking at the cabin and EF, there's only 1 ticket left for sale; a nearly full flight for both classes.

Moved from the middle row to the side. However, it might be a good chance for it to become a Hallmark movie, rather cocooned myself after an unhealthy amount of food and dessert wine on this Christmas flight.

received the “we were unable to confirm your upgrade Reward request” message this morning at 7am for 16:30 departure this arvo on qf43. WP trying from y (flex) to business. I assume this dredded text means no chance of a gate upgrade?

Also - I can see one flex fare available still...

Loadings are J1 C0 D0 I0 U0 - while I've read reports of people getting that rejection message and still being upgraded at the gate, my guess (I'm unskilled in interpreting loadings) is it won't happen.

The OP might be #1 on the list! That’s the thing we don’t know. There could be Platinum 1s and Chair’s Lounge pax in the queue to get that last seat.
