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.

Thank you for your advise. I have put in a request.

However, this is how the loadings look ... very slim chances, I'd say? WP here.

QF 038 J2 CL DL IL
This is now

QF 038 JL CL DL IL for 01SEP QF 38 SIN-MEL.

Have not received the upgrade unsuccessful text yet. I thought the message would've been out by now?

Could someone please check QF35 on 7/9?
Trying to work out my chances for Y->PE/J
Here you go... at least you have time to mentally prepare, now... and no Y+ on this one, based on current aircraft type (332)

Sorry,

Hi,
I am trying to get me and +1 to MEL or SYD from BKK on 8 Jan, and I am looking for loadings of whatever flight I can get on.

May I ask for QF loading on 8 of Jan 2024 from BKK to SYD (QF24), SIN-MEL (QF36, QF38) or SIN-SYD (QF292) please?

Thank you in advance.
 
All very tight and expensive I would imagine.

Thank you @pjm99au.

Looks like almost all fare buckets bar B/Y, W, C/J and A/F are gone; I need to start looking for alternative routes/carriers :-(

Update: I called QF to request release of first class seats on QF2. There are 8 or 9 seats available in A fare bucket, but the request was rejected :-( I guess they expect to sell those first class seats.

I was on the phone today also asking for F or J releases out of SIN for late Jan but also declined. Yield management are holding back a lot of the cheaper seats out of Asia at the moment.
 
Hi there

Would anyone be so kind providing me with the loading of QF37 MEL to SIN on 30 September 2023?

Thanks
