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.

Thanks @dairyfloss (Matt)! :) Any chance you could check loadings for QF1 10 Apr departure?
Sure - much the same as on the 9th April, but with slightly lighter loads in Y (fare buckets to 'H' are still selling - though Y/B/H are all still Flex grade)

Thanks again! Based on this looks like I'll stick with QF1 since 380 has more seats and loads look the same.
Yeah, if you had the choice, I'd go for QF1 on the 10th - might be a tad cheaper as well.

Thank you! I'd take 157 if I was alone but I have a ball and chain + an infant these days. Looks like I can only secure 1 x saver business seat on 153...bah!
 
I'd be grateful if someone could post loadings for SYD-LHR QF1 on Wednesday 22nd March.
Thanks in advance.

Maybe too soon to ask, but would someone be kind enough to share QF12 upgrade availability for 29 Mar LAX-SYD?
Anyone after J->F on 27 Mar have zero chance. In bound QF11 subbed for a B789.

Hi again, sorry to push to favours but could another updated search be run. Just keen tk see if there's a chance tk spread out.
Thanks very much

No problem - that's what this forum is for! If anything, it looks to be a little lighter than last time we checked. I'd give you a seat map as well, but not available for this flight (JQ?)

Hi Team,

I would appreciate the loadings for QF64 JHB -SYD on Saturday 25 March.

Thank you
Here you are - I've made the assumption you are actually coming back from JNB, and not Johor Bharu (JHB) in Malaysia :p
