How did you request these exit seats? With a note in the Booking or actual pre-allocation?
For a start, you can only have preferences registered for your MEL-SYD and SYD-PER segments. However SIN-MEL and PER-SIN can be pre-allocated.
This is what you needed to do as a QF WP:
- Call Qantas premium and ask for a request for an aisle exit row seat pre allocation be submitted for the international segments. This will be normally granted in a few business hours and will become apparent on www.checkmytrip.com and/or www.qantas.com/yourbooking.
- For Domestic flights, call Qantas to get a 'note' put into your booking to request for exit row. For check-in, get to the airport very early; be there when check-in opens and request one if not already preallocated.
