QF Domestic Seat selection

[k3nnis]

Hi,

I have booked SYD-MEL in J and MEL-SYD in Y. I have used my QFF points for the classic awards using up 24000 points.

So my booking has my QFF number. If I switch to my CX Gold number will it open up better rows for the advanced seat selection for both sectors or won't matter?

And how do I switch to my CX Gold number in my QFF booking without calling up?

Thanks,
K.

Actually just found out, I can change the FF number on the Finair website... I will test and see what rows gets released

update:
Just used my CX gold and the Y sector MEL-SYD let me select from Row 11 onwards.

However for the J sector SYD-MEL on the 767 with 30 J seats I can only select rows 4 and 5. Does this sound right for a OWS? I guess OWE have rows 1-4 on the 767?

I picked 4E (767) and 11D (737-800). Hopefully this is a good choice.

Yes, rows 4 and 5 only for OWS/Gold.

Thanks for the confirmation

Usually the first row/s are only seen by CL/P1 on domestic sectors, not even OWE, but a OWE might see further forward than what you see as OWS.

In my experience with Domestic J, as a silver it was row 4 and 5, gold allows row 3 and WP row 2. However on many of the CBR-SYD and CBR-Mel routes gold would only get me row 4 and 5 and WP row 3. However at T-80 I could generally pick any available seat in J and as most of the times I travel the J cabin is fairly lightly loaded I can normally get row 2. (Mr FM won't let me pick row 1, as you have to put bags up and there is usually not much space above row 1 due to equipment etc.).

It was very nice booking a domestic sector yesterday and being able to choose 4C. Interesting to see that at least one other row 4 seat was already taken. But they were MEL-SYD-MEL legs.

For me that's not enough reason to fly another 1200SC but would be nice.

I had a perfect storm this membership year where everything worked perfectly to get WP1.

Two lots of DSCs and a few YUPPs all combined perfectly. That and the tantalising prospect of LTG in the near future,

LTG really is the only thing I'm aiming for at the moment hence why I'm on so many SC YTD.

Nice. I had to wait until ~T-48 hours to get 4C for tomorrow mornings flight.
