And I'm no expert on the QF award chart, so I'm not sure - but the way I read it, yes, you can.

Also, have you considered heading to CC?

Certainly to the US, you might be able to finagle some DL/CO/NW miles to use on their nonstops. DL is sending a few 77Ls out that way, which will be very ncie in J.

And you could always use *A miles and go AC J, which is also quite respectable (but, as you mentioned, requires the layover).
Your probably right...I have done several deals on CC, but then again, none of the above mentioned Airlines allow one-way mileage redemptions (which I often require)
