The Qantas Status Run Master Thread

I think that I have read somewhere on AFF that a WP can request the QF call centre to make a J points seat available(?) - but can a WP request the call centre to make a Y points seat available? (its a flight operated by a Q300 so no J option).

A WP can request any redemption seat in any cabin to my understanding (and past experience). Needs to be the lower fare classes available I think. More knowledgeable members on the forum can explain the fare classes better.
Request is easy. Success is more challenging.
 
MIA-CLT-DFW-MEX in J for $575 and its possibly 160 SCs or 220SCs depending on what combination of trust you have in the status calculator vs tables vs reports. So somewhere between $2.88 and $3.65 which is still top tier.

I haven't been able to find any good pricing on transcontinental routes (lots of $5-6/SC) so far so using these more creative ones.
