I have booked the above flights in QF Y+ and have been preallocated the following seats:

QF73 - 23J
QF94 - 34D

Should I leave them as is? Are there any negatives to these seats?

i think uve done well!!.. 23J is a J/C skybed seat on all qantas 744s and its the first row of J/C.. the only downside i see is that 23K pax needs to step over your feet when you are in 'bed mode'.. but this can be done without disturbing your slumber!!
34D is a 'true' Y+ seat but is the first row of Y+ on all 744s so there are no seats infront of you reclining into your 'space'. only one pax in 34E needs to step over your feet but again should be no trouble.. and if you are lucky enough to get a 744ER on this flight row 34DEFG has over twice as much room in front.
look up qantas.com seat maps to get an idea of where your seats are located.
i think you will be pleased.. happy travels!!

AntMac,

Welcome to AFF.

If you have managed Skybeds on a Y+ ticket then don't move. It's a good deal :!:

Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated.
I have had a look at the seat maps for all of the 4 class 774's and it appears that row 23 used to be in J. Does this Y+ cabin creep occur often? The LAX-MEL QF94 is listed as a 380 so I assume 34D is OK?

'cabin creep' depends on pax loads in each class(mainly if Y heavily booked!)..but could be more frequent on 744 over the next couple of years prior to the reconfiguration ( ie..first class seats being removed and being replaced with skybed mkII..the same seats as a380) of the 9x744s that qantas are keeping. 34D on a380 still looks good due to 1st row and no-one reclining into your 'space'!
