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.

Appreciate it if someone could check EP for loadings.

Hi all, could I please request QF business class loadings on PER-SYD, direct or with one stop in MEL, on friday 18 and saturday 19 october?

It is for a WP award seat request and I'm unsure if availability is considered per leg or for the overall journey (eg. could D or I be available PER-MEL-SYD while only J is available PER-MEL or MEL-SYD?) but in any case need to get to SYD so looking at all options.

Thank you! Looking good at this point for a Y-W/J upgrade, or too early?

As pjm points out…way too early to really tell. A few days before is about as good as it gets. The recent announcement of the potential for a strike by Air Canada pilots for example can see the mass transfer of pax from AC to QF and other airlines. Delays and cancellations can see the mass transfer of pax to or from an airline. Students scrambling to get back for the start of the university semester can see flights - in all classes - get very full .
 
Hi all could I please get the loading of below flight?
QF29 MEL to HKG on 24/Sep
QF30 HKG to MEL on 30/Sep

Thanks in advance!

Interesting that W is sold out on both flights, must be proving successful for QF on the BKK route!
