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.

Original thread title: update on QF93 on 12 sept

Appreciate it if someone could check EP for loadings.

Hi All,

Could anyone advise me on the likelihood of a Y to J upgrade on QF6 from SIN to SYD, Fri 22nd Jan please? I'm not quite across all of the booking class codes so a little explanation would be great also. Many thanks in advance.

Steve

Flight is full: J0 C0 D0 I0 Y0 B0 H0 K0 M0 L0 G0
Maybe some upgrade space in the hold or strapped on the wings...
 
Good Morning

Would appreciate the loadings on the following flight please CNS-BNE 26 January QF1279. Qantas saying no seats available for redemption nor upgrades as cabin is full yet I can buy 9 J seats nine :D. Already have Mrs Ansett in J BNE-MEL and would be nice to have the rest if poss as she is flying solo on this trip.

Many thanks

Here are the loadings: J9 C9 D9 I9 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 G0 E9

Seatmap shows 3 business seats currently selected.
 
Thanks Kermatu.

Seems they are holding onto the seats for pure revenue sales only at this stage. Fingers crossed they release some closer to the date.

Pretty high J,C,D and I numbers on the flights 2 hours before and after as well, so I think the signs are good. Remind us again in a week and we can have a look.

Considering it's I9 you've got a very good chance, but then any WP, SG and PS will trump you.
 
I would say there's a good chance for points upgrade to CGK, especially since there are likely to be last minute cancellations given the current situation.
 
Good Morning would some one be able to advise loads and upgrade probability on the following flights please.

Thanks Oatek looking like light loads other than QF8406.
 
Please and thankyou are always highly regarded.

An upgrade is possible, but your status makes it more of an outside chance: J9 C9 D7 I5 Y5 B3 H0 K0 M0 L0 G0


Please and thank you

Is that mean it indicating that they have 5 seats available ?

Thank you

The numbers indicate the number of seats available in each fare class but in this case since Y is at 5 that does mean there's only 5 seats available left for sale in economy.

Hi to get a better understanding of the letters and numbers please refer to the first page of this thread :D

Hi Kermatu

Just reminding as per your message above :D Wondering how things have changed.

Many thanks

J9 and C9 for that flight. I and D are zeros. Other flights still have a few J available. May be worth calling again? Unless they have a lot of staff travelling that day I'd be surprised if they were counting on 9 J revenue purchases at this stage.
