19 April QF94 LAX to MEL.

Entire first class cabin was all people upgraded. Ours was free!

Status?

My husband is Platinum.

Amazing! I guess lower cabins must have been overbooked with insufficient upgrade requests from J to F.

Success ! QF 559 from Y to J BNE to SYD at T -27.

Have never been to the J lounge in BNE before, so I’m looking forward to it !

Success! QF 535 from Y to J, BNE to SYD, also at T -27.

This is a monumental upgrade for a number of reasons - think it’s my first time on an A332, in J and it’s DSC, plus the final kicker - it’ll make me LTG.

Success on 20/4 about 3 hours beforehand. QF769 Syd-Adl
They sent an sms to my partners number instead of mine though (I had my QR details in there, just dropped to ruby last month )
Reward economy -> reward business.
Would have booked business if it was available as we were coming back from surgery, but pleased with the result nonetheless

and it’s DSC

I thought upgrades don't confer a higher point/status earn rate?

Correct, they don’t. Status/points earn from the original paid fare
