QF27/28 many rows do not appear in seat map for selection

[L.Sinc]

Hi all,

Im flying SYD-SCL on 10 Oct 12, and back on 10 Nov, the aircraft is one of the refurbed 747's. When I try to select my seats many rows in the Y cabin are missing. Not even greyed out, just absent. Almost every other row.

Does anyone know why this is the case?

LAN codeshare on that flight and have those seats for themselves to allocate.

Hi L.Sinc,

I ply that route a fair bit and get the same problem - happens in the J cabin too. Have never chased the matter up but appears to me to be some division of seating availability between QF and LAN marketed ticketing, as I have had the same thing booking throuugh both carriers.

Thanks for the lightening speed reply! I would never have guessed this. Cheers!

Example: my seating availability on QF28 later this year. Pity it is not the true layout as an upper deck with only 9 seats would be awesome.
