I often when travelling, try to determine how many good my chances of getting bumped are, especially on the way back from a Biz trip. When I go into the advanced search at UAL site (as an example) and look at the various fares available, it shows Y9, F9, ect... Now, whenever I look at any flights, if I'm reading it right, everything is wide open. The way I think I'm supposed to read it, is that there are 9 seats available in Fare Class Y, and then you add that to all of the other numbers to get the total available seats. Is this correct? And if so, does anybody know of any flights that show only one or two seats available? On flight in particular I'm looking at is FL216 SEA-IAD on the 14th. It has thirteen "9"'s in front of various fare codes, so does that mean there is 13*9=117, 117 Available seats? Any help in lessnoning my confusion would be greatly appreciated.
