Glad you got this to work for you, I flew this route in April. I took SYD-CGK on QF (separate ticket) then CGK-DOH-JFK on QR and loved it. First time flying QR J and controversially, I found the "old" QR 777 2-2-2 format to be way more spacious and comfortable than the QSuite. The privacy in QSuite is nice, but the distance between rows on the old QR 777 2-2-2 "mini pods" is incredible. It is a very spacious cabin if you are "unlucky" and get that instead of the QSuite.
Enjoy!
