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.

Hi all, is someone able to check the loadings on QF73 SYD - SFO Sunday March 4?

Can't bring up anything on expert flyer for Business, and no flight available when searching Qantas booking in any class - even economy (though lots of seats available). Is this flight sold out, or am i missing something?
 
QF 73 SYD 5:55p → SFO 12:25p
J0 C0 D0 I0 W0 R0 T0 Y0 B0 H0 K0 M0 L0 G0

Says it’s full. Showing as a 744

Thanks! When looking at the Economy seat map in expert flyer it shows 20 odd seats blocked, and another 30 odd free/available. Are these likely then just pax who haven't selected a seat yet? (thanks in advance - new to this)
 
Yes if it is full then the blocked seats will be selectable by high status passengers and the rest are just passengers that haven’t yet selected seats
 
Hi,

Can someone let me know the loading a for QF1, SYD-LHR 15/3

I’m a SG with a request in for Y-> J

Cheers
