I’m guessing it comes from the fact both are leaving from the international terminal & thus the imposed taxes are lessenedHmmm - interesting, given that I'm only doing MEL-PER.

So I put in a request for 2 J classic rewards seats to be released for QF34, KIX-SYD on September 28 a few days ago.During that time there was an interim booking reference.Earlier today I got an email to contact the centre, who advised that there were no seats available. EF shows 9 across all fare buckets.
Should I try again or accept that I won't get those J Seats?

Maybe request QF26 HND-SYD instead and if it gets approved, buy an ITM-HND JAL explorer pass for ~$100 each. Earns 10 SC, JAL will check through on separate tickets, and you'll get better lounges at HND.
What class?got some seats to/from the US today, not my ideal routing - got rejected on some better flights, but got a combination that (just) works

Well done.J class
2 x F SYD-LAX departing late Sept ... as a P1. The release came through immediately. The return flight 2 x F LAX-SYD was sent up the chain for approval. Will need to call back on that one.
The WP ability to request award seats is probably the most valuable feature of the tier.Very happy to report the return request has been approved. Today I was thinking it would be good to push on all the way through to JFK, that's been approved in the last 30mins. Now waiting on a request to release JFK-LAX-BNE .... if that doesn't come through we'll just buy a revenue ticket and come home F via SYD.
The LAX-JFK will be our first 787 flight and probably doing it in the best cabin on a US transcon
Very happy with QFF at the moment!

Best cabin on a US transcon would have to be AA Flagship F A321. 1-1 config, less passengers, more personalised service.
If sharing with more people is better, then by your logic, economy is the best!I've done AA A321 F .... I wasn't that fussed with it. You can see comments and photos in a TR link in my signature.
Although I haven't stepped foot on a 787 (outside of a QF tour back in 2012), I reckon the new J cabin will win on all fronts.

Passenger : FA and passenger : toilet ratios are an advantage
Hard products are similar - footwell, all aisle access, lie flat bed.
Can argue all you want about soft product - highly variable in F and J.

Yeah on a new plane it's great!
Will you sit in the forward section or the smaller rear section?
