Interestingly this reservation ended up with double PlusPoints applied due to the glitch of a few weeks ago so there is still a second request applied which presumably will be removed once the flight closes

Had upfared to PremiumPlus since my upgrades had not been happening this year and the SYD routes can be tough for the upgrades albeit it is winter in Australia as timing is at end of school holidays

All three of these upgrades happened this past week. Still have two more pending for SYD flights in December and upgrades are tough in December but we will see. :-)
