QF WP 01FEB26 QF1 SYD-SIN J > F
Classic reward request
Success at T-1??
I left the F lounge 5m before scheduled boarding and checking BP no change still J
Boarded hoping for red beep nothing
Stepped in to J and showed FA eBoarding pass
"um we actually have you in First Class today Mr VBAP.. Are you happy to take the stairs down?"
What The.??
Double check oh seat is now 5F...

Later chat with CSM she recalled "Processing my order" to put through my upgrade

Didn't get any SMS but happy with the result
Aesop amenity kit
Both champagnes before takeoff
Enjoyable impromptu red wine tasting
