PLEASE INCLUDE DATE, FLIGHT NUMBER, ORIGIN & DESTINATION IN ALL REQUESTS
>>>> ADDED BY ADMIN (6 Sept 2010) <<<<



Background to this thread
We have noticed an increase in the posting of questions about seat availability on specific flights. These are all valid questions and we all appreciate the efforts our members go to to provide answers.

The only drawback is that our forums can become "cluttered" with specific questions about availability on specific flights. This tends to reduce the overall usability of our site.
We have therefore created this new consolidated thread where you can ask questions about seat availability on specific flights. Hopefully, this will reduce clutter and improve useability.

Guidelines for posting in this thread
Please post questions about availability of specific flights or upgrade probability in this new consolidated thread. Be sure to include the airline, flight number, date, origin and destination and any other relevant detail.

When answering questions, please include the original question. This will assist in readability and management of the thread.

Thanks!



For Questions about Aircraft Configuration and Seat Availability, please use this thread:​



See this thread for hints on how to read loadings:


If looking for, say Qantas points upgrades, look for A class for First, mid to high D or any I class for Business and any R for Premium Economy.

Look for the most expensive category of the cabin YOU are currently booked in as being sold out e.g. J0 to first, W0 to Business & Y0 to PE for increased op-up chances. Also, look for availability on the discount premium buckets (A, P, I, D, U, T & Z inventories).

Conversely, look for high numbers in the discount economy buckets (N, O, Q, E & X inventories) for reduced op-up chances.

Seat maps can be a VERY rough guide but note that just because a seat is not showing as allocated does not mean that seat hasn't been sold. Not everyone pre-selects seats.

Hi Danger

Thanks .

Just to confirm, j c d i are Business, and w r t are PE.

So not much chance on QF9, but may have a chance of an upgrade on QF10.

I would say you're pretty much there with your interpretations. And, of course, predicting an upgrade is a bit of a black art. :)

Re: update on QF93 on 12 sept

Many Thanks CaviAck! Not much chance of a point upgrade for SG it seems.
 
Re: update on QF93 on 12 sept

Could somebody check BA26 (HKG-LHR) on 19 June please?

Thanks in advance!

It's currently showing:
F0 A0 J0 C0 W0 Y0 B0 H0 K0 M0 G0

Which seems weird to me...

Shows the same for me too
F0 A0 J0 C0 W0 Y0 B0 H0 K0 M0 G0

BA28 shows
F0 A0 J0 C0 W0 Y6 B2 H1 K0 M0 G0

Same results on KVS and EF. Looks like a busy day perhaps?
 
Re: update on QF93 on 12 sept

Wow! Thanks very much for the prompt responses Dr_Fliptop and CaviAck, was checking for my parents who are in Y for the flight - no chance of an upgrade it appears.

I did a couple of dummy bookings on the BA site after posting this and saw 3 J seats left for sale...perhaps they are overbooking the flight?

That or for whatever reason the GDS is under-reporting available seats. I know QF has that issue with EF and KVS sometimes. Like my flight SYD-LAX next week, EF and KVS are showing 6 and 3 W seats respectively but I know for a fact that there are more than that many available.
 
Re: update on QF93 on 12 sept

I'm on QF11 on Monday with this being the current loadings.

F7 A1 J9 C9 D9 I3 W5 R4 T0 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N9 Q9 G0 E0

Any idea on my chances for a points upgrade from Y+ to J? I'm only silver but this flight will push me over to gold.

Flight looks fairly wide open, I'd say a good chance of it being successful. Only problem will be how many SG's and WP's opting for the same thing that might be the limiting factor cause the number of seats are there.
