Thank you @Matt_01 - copy paste issues, this is what happens when distracted I was talking to a QF agent on the phone today and he was mentioning that class T (Disc. PE) can be requested to be converted to a reward seat as well. I have updated my post accordingly.In addition to what @Ade posted above as a WP you can request seats to be converted.

Is this something that Hobart will do without prompting? I spent 45 minutes this morning attempting SYD-LHR in May 2024 and all I have got is SYD-LAX-LHR for a lot of hours and points. Sue was great, attempted multiple routes but that was the best we could find for my specific dates.In addition to what @Ade posted above as a WP you can request seats to be converted.

If you can see that there is inventory in the right fare buckets, then it could be worth an ask - but there is really no guarantees here. For WP status, if the computer says no, it's a no. With P1 status there is an additional review that could occur, which may be linked to the release from higher fare buckets they can access, as well (e.g. 'I' & 'D' class for international Business, and not only 'I' class).Is this something that Hobart will do without prompting?

wondering if I try this tack on a new call.
You may have to prompt, when I call up about seat release after the pleasantries I just normally start with "Would mind seeing if we can seats released"Is this something that Hobart will do without prompting?

Brilliant to get THREE J seats, let alone in Jan. That may say something for QF bookings ex-DFW, but definitely a huge win for you! Enjoy the flights!First time requesting award seats release. Looking for early January 2024 from USA - AU. I had some options with various flights on 2 days, only one was available. So success,, will be flying 3xJ DFW-SYD-MEL. A day earlier than preference but as it is in school holidays, happy to have snagged anything.

On the phone with QF Premium now, trying to get 1x Y SYD-CBR for 04JUN23. Realise it is too late to request. Call answered with no waiting time. By accent guessing CPT. The agent mentioned she is unable to request reward seats on any flights for 04JUN23.
From experience with HBA/AKL, I'm told that as long as there is Red-E-Deal fares available on a flight, WP can request seats to be released. I'm only asking for 1x Y ... so, I'm thinking to HUCA ....
Yes - ‘I’ class for Platinum on international, though certain routes are more restricted than others.Thanks Matt. Is it correct that I look at the number of I class available (and pray)?
You cannot make the booking when there are no Award seats in the class requested being offerred, so you need to call first.Hi, do you need to have actually made and paid for the actual booking before making the request or can you do it before the ticketing?
