QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic Reward seats?

[lisemare]

a couple of the flights I was looking at were I9, It was the manual review that was a No for every flight in that period. I’m sure the droid may still be saying yes to some dates.

Just got 2 x J Syd to DFW released. Supplied 2 dates that computer would release , took 28th Feb. Other option was the 26th Feb( Feb) so could still be up for grabs.

P1, QF69 MEL-DEL J9 C9 D5 I2 -> U1 declined by bot, has gone to manual review...

Released, but in the interim I'd found an F seat on AI, so going to let this lapse

I’m going to Japan next week, not Dallas next year.

Unlikely to be any releases till end of May to North America, South America, Europe or Japan due to crisis

I've heard this from a friend too (P1). Do you know if that is end May request date or travel date?

Travel date - it's still possible to make requests for later in the year.

What do people say or/do when they get denied on flights +/- 3 days with multiple i category seats?

Should I ask for a manual review? Do I say "I actually see multiple i category seats on my platform"?

Manual review is only for P1. Otherwise, it’s luck of the draw. Just because inventory is there doesn’t mean they’re willing to open it up for you.

I understand seat releases will still occur via droid but manual reviews anywhere international is suspended.

No luck for 4 pax in F or J in June from SIN>SYD>BNE loads were A9I9, understandable.
Got Y for SIN>BNE direct instead.

Manual review for p1 still possible, just not Europe or orth Sou America until end of May

Is there a best time to call to get better agents (e.g. weekdays / business hours) or does it not really matter since it's all being fed into a computer anyway?

Makes no difference what time or day you call, all depends on the droid.

If you’re P1 and want a quick manual review don’t call on the weekend because you’ll have to wait till Monday to get a response.

For a P1 would they manual review C class or only D/I Class?

when I last requested an open, they told me they can only do manual review on F or D.

Officially it’s D but I’ve heard it does happen for C on occasion.

Oh that’s good to know.

For P1 or CLPO?
CLPO have a different set of "rules" to P1.

CLPO have a different set of "rules" to P1.

I'm not sure there is? Back in January, a CLP1 tried to request J seats to Japan over Christmas and the agent refused to even send the request for manual review due to the "black out". Tons of D & I availability at the time.

Blackout dates apply to everyone.

In another P1 group a few years ago, someone posted the different fare classes required for CLPO, P1, WP, CL to request. I can't find that post now, but there was a definite difference and pecking order, which is not unexpected.
