Have had a couple of these complimentary upgrades beep through in the last 3 months.

One was BNE-MEL (737)
Other one was MEL-AKL (737)

The first one I got beeped at the gate and the second one I noticed in the app when I went to check in.

There’s been a lot of reports on Fb, Reddit & here of complimentary upgrades on DOM and short-medium haul INT QF flights for WPs since VH took the helm. Definitely a charm offensive [still] underway, but it’s also easily offset by the ongoing noise around paid legroom seats for the majority…

Cheers,
Matt.

The bad thing is that P1s aren't getting comps, especially on flights with empty J seats.
Maybe they know they don't need to win the P1s over.
