Qantas Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

They block seats but they are usually still sold nd will be allocated to someone with no status at check in. They don't not sell seats especially during the holidays.
In my experience, they do tend to keep one up their sleeve, which I presume is if they need a deadhead.
 
I’m currently sweating a Y+ to J upgrade on QF 11 SYD-LAX tomorrow. Normally as a WP1 with 9+ J seats available I would get notified at T-7 days or T-60 worst case.

Suspect things have changed with the Middle East rerouting or perhaps due to Easter.

Hopefully T-20 does the trick. Now only showing 4 J and 2 F seats for sale

QF10 LHR-PER success for a family member, PE saver to J. Status at the time of upgrade approval was NB, so it was unexpected but quite appreciated by them. Assuming PE gave them some extra priority in the queue.
