I read somewhere that Silver with Qantas Club gets priority over Silver. Does anyone have more insights on this?

Flex Economy to Business upgrade successful on QF59 (SYD-HND) tomorrow at T-25 as SG.

I also upgraded my domestic leg, but success there was no surprise for a 6:30am flight that looks half full!

Unable to confirm text at T-10 on QF94 LAX-MEL Y+ to J as a WP

The upgrade black box liked my colleague more with a successful upgrade on the same fare class and status

My only hope now is at the gate.

Its complicated.

I booked Y initially on Dec 31, cancelled and rebooked Y+ and got a new PNR Jan 1 and then had to change domestic US flights on Jan 3 under the same PNR which lost my upgrade request so I had to re request.

I think he booked on Jan 2 so may technically have been a little ahead of me on the request given the re request.

I think its be classified as a rewards booking as it was originally a rewards flight on EK404

Unlikely upgrade path as QF would've rebooked you in U class (award) but who knows QF might release an F ticket award.
