I phoned Skywards tonight to try and sort this out and was told that theer no seats open at the moment and to call back in a couple of weeks when seats might be opened up.
Im currently Gold but unsure if that makes any difference.... Anybody else come across this and told to re phone in a couple of weeks to see if any seats opened up... or any advice ..
Cheers

Happens very often, Though I have been told to call back in a day or two rather than in a week. My advise is to call twice daily starting from three days before ur flight. Thats when they usually start to open up.
If the plane has many remaining Biz class seats just a couple of days from its departure, they tend to allow you to upgrade since the seats will be free anyway.
