I second this.
The posting of qpoints from JAL are hit and miss for me.
Took 4 flights with JAL the previous month, and only the 2 most recent ones posted after a week. Still waiting for the qpoints of the other 2 flights (which I took before the flights that posted) Completed the itinerary almost a month ago now...
I think chances are very slim the qpoints will post in time, but buying them is the perfect backup.
BTW from what Ive read online, QR doesn't take the date of the flight into consideration if your points don't post by April 6th. They only look at the date the points arrived, which sometimes takes a ridiculous amount of time.
