Unfortunately, wasn't able to change my flight, but I was able to reserve 12D on CX254 well before the date of travel. I only have CX silver status.
That was my experience for years, Tried to book a September itinerary and a December itinerary, and both had the mini cabins blocked to golds on both directions (they would release to Diamond but not Gold). Since I purchase fully refundable fares, for now I booked on another carrier.
Will check later or a different agent if they open up.
