Possible to book QF return flight more than 12 months in advance?

[brucebrad]

Is it possible to book a QF international return flight more than 12 months in advance of the booking date? Even though fare rules say the return has to be within 12 months of the outgoing flight (rather than the booking date) it doesn't seem to be possible to make such bookings on the Qantas website (and cheap fares have quite substantial date change fees).

353 days out is where it is at for QF.

Many airlines limit it to 330 days.

So if I want to book now (in May) to leave in September and return the following June, I have to book with an earlier return date and then change it later. Do Qantas ever waive the change fee on the return flight in this case?
