I am now looking for 4 U seats for next October, on a different route, and the same thing happened. First it showed me a range of dates, then to check I searched again, and it showed almost every date available, and now when I double checked, it's showing a different range of dates.

Has anyone else noticed this recently? Perhaps the dates shown are completely wrong and it will crash once you get to booking. Or I wondered if the system temporarily took the seats after you did an initial search, and then re-released them.

Either way something really screwy is going on.....again.....
Not saying you are doing this but it has happened to me...

I have checked for CW and see the dates etc, and when I go in again, I "forget" to change cabin from WT to CW... even though I am sure I did.

On the side I had this work to my favour last week when there was no award avail and then 15 minutes later there was. ^
