In addition to asking for "compensation", should I try to at least get on CX 465 or 407 which (for right now) operates on a 343?

I asked my client and they used a consolidator to buy the F ticket. Generally, I would use our corporate travel agency to make the booking but couldn't resist when they wanted to use FC for me. (We are restricted to flying in Econ, regardless.)
