A couple of people brought up the fare class which is the crux of the issue. My fare class on the LAX-SFO-SYD ticket is G (PZ from SFO-SYD if it makes a difference), and when they are changing my ticket the lowest available appears to be V. So it’s not showing any SDC options.
So, your SFO-SYD is in PZ while LAX-SFO is not. SDC for broken fares on App does not work. 1K agent can downgrade you to the originally purchased fare class first. You can then re-apply Pluspoints because PZ space is available for LAX-SYD nonstop.
Anywhere, happy to hear that IAH-LAX will be on time. Now, you can relax and PL hopping at IAH, LAX and SFO.
Have a good journey.
