I was just about to look these up, but they're all over a month away, which is quite far, unless you want to know if a specific fare bucket is available? In a month EK could sell another 100 seats on each of these flights.
[MENTION=11258]all[/MENTION], can we get some consensus and maybe a framework around this thread as it seems to have become a staple of the EK forum. Aside from taking business away from Expertflyer, which is a fantastic and very reasonably priced service, a lot of requests are very far out or don't contain all require information, I propose a Wiki which outlines that a request should be posted <10 days prior to departure (perhaps 7 days?) and must contain 4 items per flight:
- Origin
- Destination
- Flight number (as there may be multiple flights per day)
- Date
If someone has interest in seats of a specific fare bucket being available, e.g. to know when they might be able to find a Saver seat, in all honesty, they should pay for the subscription. Also, there is a free trial.
Lastly, perhaps a limit of 1 request (up to 4 flights per request) per month per user? More than that and one should just subscribe.
[To the OP of the quoted post, this wasn't directed at you, I just merged a general thought I had earlier today into this reply, please don't take offense]
