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.

What's the availability in PE on JL52/51 (SYD-HND and back) in June? The aircraft has the cabin but JL does not show seats available on their booking site and EF shows PE availability at zero. At the same time, some of the seats are occupied on the seat map.
Can the allocation genuinely be exhausted or how could I get my hands on these?

I'm using Wed 4/6/25 (+/- 3 days) for outbound and Thu 26/6/25 (+/-3 days) for the return leg and a typical load is:
JL52: F0 A0 J9 C9 D9 I5 X1 W0 R0 E0 P0 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N9 Q9 O0 Z0 G9
JL51: F0 A0 J9 C9 D9 I4 X0 W0 R0 E0 P0 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N9 Q9 O9 Z0 G0
 
Hi folks, can someone please check the loadings for QF44, DPS-SYD on 28 AUG 2025, and 29 AUG 2025?

TIA.

I knew I had to include the airports, but I posted hastily and forgot. Apologies. Thanks for the info. Considering an upgrade request.
 
G’day to all.

Could I please get the loadings for QF11 SYD-LAX on 11th of February?

Also, out of curiosity, what app or website do you guys use to check these seats?

Thanks heaps.

I knew there were still some seats available, but QF wants 750,000 points for a classic reward plus seat! 🤣

I have a paid seat in W and was hoping for an upgrade. Even though there are only 9 seats left, there is still hope.

Wouldn’t it be awesome to be able to upgrade to one of those 4 F seats?
 
Data point
Qf28 Upgrade successful Monday
(discount premium to business, 3x seats, platinum).
Posted 60 hours prior to departure.
Went from 4 business class fares bookable before upgrade processed to zero.
