Assuming I get BN1 have I covered all the bases here in terms of maximising chances? Also OWE from QFF Platinum will be higher piority than MPC GR right?

Many variables needs to work in your favor:

1) The Y seats are overbooked as you said and HOW MANY.

2) MPO Diamond (all the variety), Gold are in front of you. If these numbers are more than the number of pax overbooked, then no op-up for you.

3) Yes, if you managed to pass 1 and 2, then BN1 will be in your advantage and you will get a Y+ seat.
