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.

Would someone please be able to check loadings on QF128 for Sunday night? Am hoping to move from Y+ to J.

There's a couple of us hanging out for an upgrade so the numbers will be appreciated.

Looks good

QF 128 HKG 8:00p → SYD 6:55a
J9 C9 D9 I8 W3 R0 T0 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N9 Q9 O9 G0 X9 E9
And for those of us on QF30 not so good:

J3 C3 D0 I0 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L8 V7 G0
 
The numbers haven’t changed too much so they haven’t started processing upgrades yet

QF 128 HKG 8:00p → SYD 6:55a
J8 C8 D8 I7 W2 R0 T0 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N9 Q9 O9 G0 X9 E9
 
Hey all, four of us travelling Y+ and hoping for a J upgrade on QF11 (SYD-LAX) July 15th. have also submitted for QF12 (LAX-SYD) return on 27th July as well. I'm Q Silver Club. Just wondering what availability is looking like right now?

Hello thanks, apologies I've added the cities into my original post - Basically its a SYD-LAX return trip. Family holiday. :)

QF 11 SYD 9:35a → LAX 6:20a
F9 A9 J9 C9 D9 I0 W9 R9 T0 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 G0 X9

QF 12 LAX 10:30p → SYD 6:30a
F9 A9 J9 C9 D0 I0 W9 R0 T0 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N9 Q9 O9 G0
 
I realise a little far out, but I'm curious for Y to J upgrades.

6/7/18 QF7 SYD - DFW
16/7/18 QF12 JFK - SYD

Actually a little curious how the upgrade lottery works for QF12 given the change of aircraft in LAX. Who gets priority. Someone all the way from JFK as opposed to someone joining in LAX?
 
Here are your numbers. Someone more knowledgeable will need to comment on how the upgrade system works from jfk

QF 7 SYD 12:35p → DFW 1:00p
F9 A9 J9 C9 D9 I8 W8 R6 T1 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N9 Q9 O9 G0 E9

QF 12 JFK 6:10p → SYD 6:30a
J9 C9 D6 I0 W6 R2 T0 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N9 G0

Firstly, thank you for such a quick response! :)

Thanks looking relatively promising from my understanding.

QF12 looks to show the loadings for JKF to LAX I suspect. Ie, not showing anything for the F and A buckets.
