Why not give him a UA ticket and get him to transfer the Q miles to you.
also I just logged in with a gold members account and there was availability to lax.then he could probably get one of many AA flights
qantas doesnt fly to ny that day but there was availability all the way on 9th and there is also availability coming from JFK-MEL on 13th.
I also checked normal availability on the website but didnt find anything but maybe if you can try to find someone who is gold to order the award for you.
