Remember there are always one, two or three tiers more on the hamster wheel of loyalty spinning above WP.So having been WP for best part of last 20 years i hadnt tried the requesting release of seats, but having seen this thread thought i'd give it a go. So phoned up today and requested two F seats for QF2 LHR-SIN on 22 Oct which has 3 A class fares and numerous F seats available. Got rejected. Not sure what the worth of being WP is...i'll stick with Lifemiles/United/American schemes as at least i get what i want....
Are you WP or P1?Morning Everyone. First-time poster here.
Just requested SYD - SIN QF 1 First class classic reward 1 seat which is showing A9 and F9 on 31/08/2024 and a few other dates but all declined.
Requested QF291 in J on 31/08/2024 which was successful and booked. My question is should I keep trying for the first class QF1 or is it worth the effort?
WP, On call right now for other dates so let's see. will update here.Are you WP or P1?
Oh, I thought you were asking about whether to keep trying for F on the same departure date despite being rejected.WP, On call right now for other dates so let's see. will update here.
Thank you. Yeah for other dates.Oh, I thought you were asking about whether to keep trying for F on the same departure date despite being rejected.
If so, probably unlikely.
Other dates as you mention are worth it.
That's flat out incorrect. Not the first time an overseas call centre has made something up.An agent from the Fiji Call center told me that it's too soon to request Classic rewards seats for Next September.
I thought that too. he said loadings have not been processed yet so in my mind I was wondering if that is the case and then why the Expert flyer is showing A9, and F9 already for the dates I want in Sep 24.That's flat out incorrect. Not the first time an overseas call centre has made something up.
The problem is the route you're requesting (it's pretty much impossible to get premium cabin releases on QF1) rather than the time of your request. You can keep trying every few months, but it's likely to be a futile effort.I thought that too. he said loadings have not been processed yet so in my mind I was wondering if that is the case and then why the Expert flyer is showing A9, and F9 already for the dates I want in Sep 24.
Agreed. A few posts on Rewards seat requests were successful making me hopeful that's all.The problem is the route you're requesting (it's pretty much impossible to get premium cabin releases on QF1) rather than the time of your request.

Just remember most of those are from P1s rather than WPs.Agreed. A few posts on Rewards seat requests were successful making me hopeful that's all.
That’s interesting my JFK-AKL didn’t ticket within 15-30 despite being with Hobart. Will chase up tomorrow, at least it’s better if it’s a QF flight as opposed to a partner flight1x Y CR CBR-BNE return for next week requested, released and ticketed while on the phone. ETKT arrived within 15 mins of getting off the phone.
Mine was CBR-BNE same day return and 1x Y seat ... may be yours is delayed because its international and premium cabin?? just a guess.That’s interesting my JFK-AKL didn’t ticket within 15-30 despite being with Hobart.

My last QF International manual approved CR reservation required I enter the APIS detail before it would ticket. Can you see the flight listed in your bookings?That’s interesting my JFK-AKL didn’t ticket within 15-30 despite being with Hobart.

Yes, I flagged this over in the other thread several months ago. Very important to have the min APIS in the system ASAP. From memory, just DOB should do it but might as well add the rest anyway.My last QF International manual approved CR reservation required I enter the APIS detail before it would ticket.
