Well I must be seeing things since there is (sometimes excellent) A inventory showing on all the GDS's I can see on KVS. This is for the SIN/SYD route; I believe there is no/very patchy availability trans pac.

When I asked on the QF forum the response was that A was bookable if shown.

My TA has now booked me into A on the A380 on the SIN/SYD route using the BA code share (since that is my preference for mileage earning purposes). I see that inventory on my flight has now reduced from A9 to A8. The booking shows on MMB on BA and I have even been able to change my seat. I now need to re-issue my AONE since this is a route change.

At what point do you think QF will intervene to prevent my flying the A380 in A class? When I re-issue? At the airport?

I take it that this is no more than a guess - or do you have information to back this up?
