There's usually good award availability on TG MEL-BKK. You may be better off changing to fly out of MEL.

For VA, I'll agree it's a may. The few times I've done it on multiple tickets I've been able to get a ticket to use it, but I've always had to ask, and it's never really been clear if they were just doing me a favor or not. As you said, this one is landside and it drives along the normal public streets between the airports, so it can take longer than the QF bus, especially if there's traffic.
