Qantas Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

[MEL_Traveller]

QF79 tomorrow (12 Nov) MEL - NRT

Wow! I thought those flights were pretty packed these days!

Successful Y>J upgrade at T-60 on QF73 SYD-SFO as a WP

Only booked it 2 days ago. I imagine being a mid week flight helped. Looks like there are still 17 vacant seats.

And success on the return Y>J upgrade at T-27 on QF94 LAX-MEL on an A380. Looking quite busy with only 3 seats left.

Not to be pedantic, but I think you mean I to P … and the fare you originally paid for in the other thread was A not P.

I’m mortified - pedantry appreciated, thank you! I’m more than a few beers in and you’re right - it was I and not Y.

Big thank you to @joelby for the guest into the Flounge. It was great to meet you!

 

[joelby]

Great to meet you too @CaptainCurtis. See you again soon - perhaps during this very flight.

T-23 hours and crickets so far for a Y to J request for a Gold on QF128 tomorrow evening - dammit!

I am not surprised by it… this is because many HKers are leaving HKG!!!

Might be the reason. Received a text from QF saying no joy on the upgrade request - but it may still happen at the airport.

You can only hope for economy oversold now

Not sure how that will help if J is full.
