Hi
ExpertFlyer Voice
It's been noted that EK and FZ availability is often different (in paid fare buckets) than the website availability. Can you please provide some feedback on this?
Example can be found in this thread and found below:
Expertflyer vs Website

For example, this is the availability showing from UAE POS (currently sitting in RAK) for a round trip DXB-ALA departing from T3 -- as you can see, 0 availability in Economy under FZ prime code FZ1739, 4+ in business, and the equivalent flight on EK codeshare showing 6 in Flex Plus Y:
This matches up with Emirates website for this flight, with 3 showing in Flex (booking into B class):
Now is where it gets fun: on FZ website, the FZ1721 (earlier) flight shows 1 seat left at the cheap price, whereas there are 3 seats left on the later flight (FZ1739), all in the lite fare bucket, even though Expertflyer (above) shows literally 0 seats up to Y on FZ1739. How are they still selling 3 lite fares?
