OK good to know.

But in the case of Australia-US flights, you have to be prepared to fly it all in Y if your upgrade request doesn't come through.

There’s some good availability of J awards, SFO-SYD, departing 2/8 to 2/11, returning 2/20 or 2/25, from 170-185k miles, with some UA and some partner flights.

maybe because of last minute, maybe because or corona virus making people shy away from traveling west.

As someone whose upgrade requests have not come through one too many times on flights to SYD, and I did try again last July and again was stuck in E+, I fly airlines that have PE to SYD. Think NZ and SQ. I am flying SQ in PE in July to SYD.

There are apparently seasonal flights to SYD on UA with the PP cabin and I would certainly be willing to fly UA in PP to SYD in case the upgrade did not come through. The OP should check the dates and see if PP may be available.
