No. Maximum 4 flights in SW Pacific region (Oz.) You have 6. However you could buy the 2 extra segments.
PHP Code:

 78N . 4. 2 ADDITIONAL FLIGHT SEGMENTS WITHIN EACH              
 79N .    CONTINENT, EXCEPT THE CONTINENT OF ORIGIN MAY BE      
 80N .    PURCHASED.  EACH ADDITIONAL FLIGHT SEGMENT MAY BE     
 81N .    PURCHASED AT A CHARGE OF:                             
 82N .    --------------------------------------------------    
 83N .    ----                                                  
 84N .    I FIRST CLASS    I BUSINESS CLASS  I ECONOMY          
 85N .    CLASS   I

 89N .    $150.00     I 

Otherwise, okay.

But don't fly AMS-HKG on an AONE4! That's a two class service and a huge waste of a first class coupon. FRA, CDG, FCO (some times of the year) and LHR are the F destinations for CX in Europe.

I couldn't establish definitively if AMS had 3 class service or not. The reason for not choosing LHR was that it priced out higher (EUR11000) than continental departure points (EUR7500).

Since QF does not offer First Class on domestic flights, can I buy the two segments in Business Class?

Yes. Or indeed Economy if you wish.

But even if you buy the extra coupons for the South Pacific area you still have the total coupon limit.
Usually it is cheaper to buy sectors in Australia on a seperate ticket. Check tavel.com.au. You can buy etix from them easily.

Also think of starting the ticket in IST or CAI.
I usually buy mine in CAI - lots of information here about this.
Turkist Airlines (not the worlds best) has good one way fares in Business from points in Europe to CAI.

You have the extra segements, so you can still start and finish in AMS - just connect through LHR.

But note that some airlines/agents will insist that the two "extra" segments be the last two you fly in that region, while others may let you specify which two are the "extra" segments.

This matters if for example your last segment is SYD-PER - an obvious place where D-class would feel good - while an earlier segment is a Dash 8 GLT-CNS, a one-class milk run.

Hence you may be better off purchasing the "extra" segments separate from the OWE ticket as Unterwegs suggests.
