Qantas FF Ticket - Name Change
I have a business class FF ticket booked in February and I need to change the name on it.
I know the rules say no name changes, but rules that also say x,xxx points are required to change dates are not always followed
Also, when I have changed dates before, the previous dates seats instantly become available, yet when I cancel a booking the seats are not available for re-booking instantly.
Any thought on how to change a name and still get the same seat in J ?

I got the impression from 14.7.3 that name changes were permitted on classic awards. Not that I have tried myself.
14.7.3 Subject to 14.7.7, the following changes are permitted to a Classic Award after ticketing (or booking in the case of Jetstar Asia (3K) or Valuair (VF)) and prior to commencement of travel, but will require ticket reissue (or new Itinerary confirmation in the case of Jetstar Asia (3K) or Valuair (VF)) and will incur a Change Fee from (see the Fee Schedule) per passenger:
(a) change to name (on Qantas operated and marketed tickets only, this means only tickets with a 'QF' airline code for flights operated by Qantas);

Hmm it does look like it is possible, I was reading 14.7.4 Subject to 14.7.5, changes to flight number or date of travel, without changing:
(a) name;
I'll just ring them...
(a) name;
