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.

Original thread title: update on QF93 on 12 sept

Hi all, is it possible for someone to help me with flight loadings on QF25 from Sydney to Tokyo Haneda on 28 Feb 2018...

And also QF62 from Tokyo Narita to Brisbane on 10 March 2018?

Thank you!
 
QF 25 SYD 9:35p → HND 5:00a

Hi All,

Im Flying QF 42 From Jakarta to Sydney 14 Feb 18

I have a Silver QFF, Requested Flight rewards upgrade.

What the chance of me getting it?

Thank you in advance?
 
ow thank you only 1 business left I gathered.

will that class automatically change into U if no one buying it?
Yes, only one spot for sale now.

I don't know if it will ever change into U. My guess is someone of higher status will get the upgrade in next 24 hours. But you never know. Please let us know what happens.
 
Hi guys, I'm lowly bronze with Qantas but have to fly back from LAX - MEL in a month's time, on Wednesday 28th March. Still have enough points left over for an upgrade, any higher possibility availability on QF94 or QF96?
 
QF 94 LAX 10:40p → MEL 8:30a
F6 A4 J9 C9 D9 I0 W9 R9 T9 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N9 Q9 O9 G0 X9 E9

QF 96 LAX 11:55p → MEL 9:25a
J9 C9 D5 I2 W9 R7 T3 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N9 Q1 G0 X1

QF 94 looks better at this stage with the possibility of F upgrades opening up J seats but a long way out still
 
Hi

I requested classic upgrade for QF 42 from jakarta to sydney on the Sunday 25 Feb

I am a qff silver member

Thank you in advance
 
Hi all, I’m on QF94 tomorrow the 27th. LAX-MEL

I’m Plat and requested an upgrade to Business.

What are my chances?
 
No good unfortunately by the looks of things but I struggle that it shows fully booked

QF 94 LAX 10:05p → MEL 9:00a
J0 C0 D0 I0 W0 R0 T0 Y0 B0 H0 K0 M0 L0 G0
 
QF94 "tomorrow" (27th) is operated by a 789.

Must have been a sub - there is no QF96 operating.

QF12 LAX-SYD is operated by a 744 - and really full. (J2, W4, Y7)

So no QF A380 from the West coast "Tomorrow"
