thanks
All availability ‘engines’ have a maximum of 4 for all F fare buckets. So A4 would indicate a minimum of 4 seats to be sold in the A bucket.
Having said that, I would agree with XXTSGR that it is unlikely that they will sell more than 4 seats at Saver fares.
The only way to find out is to try, possibly by contacting the call centre. I would definitely NOT try to book them under two. PNR’s, i.e. in two separate purchases. The availability will almost certainly have disappeared after the first transaction!
