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!

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.

And QF 24 only marginally better
Thanks. I'm not hoping for upgrade. My wife and daughter will be with me on this flight and it looks to have light load. This willl be daughters first long haul. I am in exit row window and wife is 2 seats away in bulkhead aisle. It'd be good if she had vacant seat next to her or if there are spare seats down the back she can rest a bit while I take care of daughter.
 
Hi all,

Flying from CGK - SYD on 13 Nov 16 on Class S
I put a request to upgrade to business using points. Do you know how many business class available for this date? Do you guys think my chances is high?

Thank you

Still U class availability. I would think chances are quite good.

is it means only 1 left ??

While only one classic J award seat is available, the rest of the J cabin is showing 9 available in each class. So D9/I9 would normally be considered a great chance, but the presence of an award seat really lifts your chances even further. So if you are looking for more than 1 seat, still a very good chance.

However, as always, status matters in terms of the pecking order when upgrades are being awarded.
 
Happy to report upgrade to business from y on QF28 today and even opup on feeder LATAM flight from Rio :) :) :) Thanks for the info

One very happy CX flyer here - upgraded to J at check-in on CX174.
Whilst Y+ still had a few seats free, (and Y appeared to have a lot of seats still available), advised she was a full flight today.

Makes the pain of a 04:00 start that much easier to deal with!!! :mrgreen:
 
Hello
I am on QF2 LHR - SYD tomorrow night, 21 Nov.
No text from Qantas yet so was wondering what the availability is?
I am in PE anyway but Business is better as we know.
Thanks
