As part of a convoluted SE Asian trek, am looking at getting to BKK via HKT on DJ ... not many direct options from PER and DJ offers the possibility of a J upgrade with points. However, EF is showing me this:
DJ 4149 0 PER 15/12/12 9:30 HKT 15/12/12 15:00 73H J7 W7 O7 H0 Y7 I7 D0 N0 B0 M0 S0 T0 A0 U0 X0 R0 L0 P7 C0 E0 F0
Hmm.
I've not done this route before on DJ, but am assuming that the 738 on offer is just a domestic config (yipes). Have been used to seeing H4 meaning 4 of the 8 J seats are open to business rewards. When H becomes 0 usually J becomes 4 (or less) as 4 seats are upgrades and as there are only 8 seats in total, then there are only 4 seats left for sale.
You will notice that the saver fares are completely sold out, Flexi still available (confirmed on the DJ site). Would this be no more mysterious than the management engine seeing economy fully sold and simply removing reward seats even though only 1 (or none) J seats have actually been sold? I'd have to ring DJ I think, but I'd like to assume that Q class, which is Flexi to Business upgrade, is probably coming from J stock rather than H stock.
Anyhoo, presuming that I find my way through that, anyone know what the lounge arrangements are at PER international? Looks like none at all to me, which would be pretty disappointing, but I hold my only hope on this at the very bottom of the Virgin Australia lounge access page:

As there is an SQ lounge at PER International, is it a vain hope to think I'd get access with a DJ Business ticket ??
