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.

Original thread title: update on QF93 on 12 sept

Only one data point, but as a WP putting in a request about 5 months out, I was 0 from 2 for Y to J upgrades last year.

Good point. Specifically looking at QF options from LHR to SYD departing on 2nd March routing either via SIN or PER.

The advantage of via SIN is on the A380 there is a chance some J seats will be freed up as J to F upgrades happen. Downside is the droop bed.

Probably best to pick the flights based on what you're happier with in Y. Then anything else is a bonus.

QF62 NRT - BNE 20 Feb. I have a upgrade request in for myself and Bride ... can someone check the loads please? Thanks in advance.
 
Hi all,

Any ideas on the probability for an upgrade from Y to J for a Gold FF on QF10 LHR-PER, 23rd Feb? Keen to snag my first upgrade, but it seems like a popular route...

Thanks!

It is rather full - still two days out, some P! upgrades may have already occurred. So best to hope there are less than ~5 WP looking to upgrade.
 
Hi all, I know it's a little far out, but wondering the chances of 2 pax upgrading W -> J (WP status) on QF25 SYD-HND on 26/02/19. Thanks in advance!
