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

Anyone know what is happening with Qantas flights LAX-Australia (Melbourne specifically) on 31st of August? Looks like all the flights except for QF18 are 100% full, and QF18 looks almost 100% empty.

Thanks in advance.

Hi all - interested in swapping (pre-booked Business rewards seats) from Jetstar to an available Qantas flight for Bali.
Wanting to know available fare classes for QF43 17/10 SYD-DPS, and QF44 28/10 DPS-SYD, to see if Platinum hubby can request a swap.
I hope I'm asking the right way - is anyone able to have a look? Cheers!

Doesn’t look great. Possibly for the return flight

Ah, not to worry. I'll have a crack. Thanks so much!
 
Could someone check the loadings in both J and Y for the following flight for me please?

EK421 on 9 Sep PER-DXB

Something very fishy going on. 50+ seats supposedly simply disappeared in 24hrs by airline seat map. No vacant seats showing now except of course, exit rows at $210 extra.

She's a busy one! Keep in mind that seats appear free until check in opens and people select their seats. Availability always a better indicator. There's 1 seat for sale in J & 2 for sale in Y.
