Strategy to obtain US Amex

Has anyone worked out the pattern as to what airfares appear on Amex's International Airline Program page?

For example, for SYD-LHR on Qantas, it will show airfares via PER & SIN on QF metal as well as EK codeshares. However, for MEL-LHR on Qantas, it almost always only shows EK codeshares — the appearance of QF metal is fairly rare.
 
I was buying Activ gift cards at Officeworks with my Chase Ink Cash for 5x and using those to pay my bills but I stopped this for now while the AUD is crashing. I would only do it for making the minimum spend.
The $500 ones I assume? Are they usually in good supply?
 
Good supply and actually you get $1000 ones . Approx $10 fee .
Other Than Chase, any of Amex Biz got multiply with Officeworks? I just have Amex Biz Gold and biz Platinum. Still learning on how best to utilize my Amex cards and Chase Preferred.

Great DP for me.
I pay quote a range of bills using post billpay via paypal pay in 4, as this counts as an "online" transaction and I get double points on a Citi Premier CC in Australia. (all paypal pay in4 counts as "online" for Citi Premier)

Paypal says that I am paying "Australian Postal Corporation" each time I do this.

I've noticed that award wallet says "Australian Postal Corpo Melbourne" codes as shipping and gives 3x points on Chase Ink Business Preferred.

Anyone want to give this a go? Potential 3x points back on literally every bill.
