Yeh, I am also showing about 400 miles over.
Pretty much if you are over by 1 mile they will NOT issue the ticket until you go to the next tier. My TA was speaking to the QF/CX/BA reps and they said no concessions are allowed.
The reason for this is that the SYD-JFK is pretty much a monopoly (with QF doing the onlt direct plane service) If people can get away with the 22,000miles fare (which is substantially LOWER than the normal fare of SYD-JFK-SYD) then everyone will just swamp in and ditch the direct QF fares.
