Thanks for the explanation Oliver! Just one thing - how does the one week waiting period reconcile with the monthly sweep (which would be my case as there are 4 months before the departure)? Am I presuming correctly that if your waitlisting week is not aligned / misses the revenue recalc then you're guaranteed rejection (as the availability in your booking class won't change)?
Also - I've had a (unconclusive) chat with M&M hotline today - so they have cancelled my itinerary as the waitlisting didn't yield any results within one week but now they are saying that it's impossible to even do the waitlisting as the system automatically rejects any attempts to do that? Seems a bit inconsistent to my taste :/ (also I'm still getting the F/8 A/5 from flighstats for my flights).
