Asiana Club - ICN-LAX F Showing Sold Out on Most Sites, but OZ Says Available

I have been searching availability for ICN-LAX in F, and noticed that every site including Expedia, Orbitz, Kayak and even OZ's own site show that the F Cabin is sold out. I called them however and they said they have seats available... is this often the case with OZ? What's with their inventory control (Also, I cannot find an OZ seatmap anywhere on the web, even with the KVS tool)

I've had many cases where I checked with ExpertFlyer and it showed no availability for a certain class but then contact my travel agent and she's able to book me without any problem. So I think OZ does hold back some seats and will release them to certain (all?) customers. Not sure why they do that, but just glad I'm able to get the flights I want when at first it looks like I won't be able to. My experience is in business and economy booking classes, but assume first works the same.

Ever try seatguru ? Seat guru only has 744 in new configuration, but I can tell you no matter it is 74M or 744, F configuration is the same for both types of planes at the nose.

As for F is sold out, I have never flown for LAX-ICN-LAX. But on ORD-ICN-ORD, there are seats in F both ways indeed block for relief pilot and deadhead pilots, not sure if it apply to ICN-LAX or not.

Thanks ORDnHKG, but I was referring to a Live SeatMap. Sites like Expedia (and even the KVSTool) allow you to see a real time seatmap, but OZ seems to block this functionality. Since the flight is showing "Sold Out" on those sites, I can't even see the SeatMap on FlyAsiana.com.

Try using SeatCounter.com.

I think OP already mentioned he is looking for seat map. Seatcounter only shows inventory, which OP already mentioned about using KVS for himself, probably it is showing F0.
