I actually bumped down to Bronze due an extended period of points flights, and I struggled to find flights to LAX in Business and I was checking just beyond a year to the date next year.
Rang QANTAS and she said they don't release my fares in classic rewards. Logged in as my mum (Gold) and they were all there. So she rang and booked my flights via her account on points. It kept crashing the system when we tried to do it on her account online (You can change the passengers when you check out) and it would't initially let the phone operator do it. However i pushed the issue and she did it via her manager and it got through eventually.
Worth noting is I didn't receive my e-Ticket like you would traditionally, but I got a huge text wall like the old days of travel agents from QANTAS Mascot NSW.
