Does that mean there's only 3 seats left or could that mean that because I am booked SYD - LHR, that e.g. 1K is taken BKK - LHR but possibly not SYD - BKK and thus showing 'unavailable' to me given I am flying all the way?
both intrigued and also hoping the load (Wednesday evening BA 10 flight) might be slightly lighter than 11 pax already with 5 weeks to go until that particular flight.
Yes, you would only see seats that were open to your final destination.
On this route, I would expect F to be full. This route is popular with BA staff, and those with a F class staff travel priority may not be confirmed in F at this point and may only get a F class seat at check in.
