Loads of availability LON-ZRH. Availability ZRH-LAX in F on 3rd, 5th and 6th but struggling to find anything in the other direction I'm afraid.

Bah, beaten to it! That's what I get for being distracted before hitting post...

Thanks Corpt. Half way there then!

p.s. and raije! I think I might go out in LX F then back with some VS miles I have.

Does everyone think LX F is better than LH F? Or shall I give up the mile plus money option to have a go in the FCT?

Need help with LH past 330 days at ANA

Hi,


I wonder if someone could please help me; due to the economic conditions I have put of my holiday in March want to do it in November/December. ANA will of course only show 330 days but hope someone with an M&M account could check LH availability r/t in December (past the 5th).

Route: FRA-CPT
People: 2
Connections: JNB okay (but will have issues with SA?)


Thanks, my M&M is still not activated as I have not posted any flights there.

duh! And I thought I wrote such a handy and neat post.

Route: FRA-CPT (I am originating in LON) but know that is never the issue
Class: Business
People: 2

Stay: between 10-18 days
Ideally last return: 19/20 December

I also noted plenty of availability in F but doing this C+M. Based on that less than imperial research, it could almost seem as if C+M did take alot of bookings in F or it could just be the financial disaster we are experiencing.

I am not so worried about the outbound as TK seems to have plenty available. I did speak to ICC about this, but the guy (something sounding like Sylvester) was very keen on dismissing me. Unless they now have a matrix search something was fishy as he completed the search in less than 1 minute. Knew I should have called back but we all know who are the more reliable of ICC and FT.

I also have a request to see if someone with M&M account could help me check these:

Looking for 2 J seats:

LX 96 ZRH - SCL and LH 510 FRA - EZE
For departures between 18 Dec to 20 Dec inclusive.

And then LX 97 SCL - ZRH and LH 511 EZE - FRA
For departures between 31 Dec to 3 Jan inclusive.

I suspect it could be a bit too earlier for the return flight though?

Thanks

Ken

LH 510 FRA - EZE available on 19 & 20 Dec.
LH 511 EZE - FRA available on 2 & 3 Jan.

LX 96 ZRH - GRU nearest available date 17 Dec.
LX 97 GRU - ZRH available on 3 Jan.

I don't seem to be able to check availability for the GRU-SCL leg of LX96/97 but presumably the same availability applies.

I gave them a call today, and I was told
- for LX 96 there are no business class seats from 17 to 20 Dec, but 19 and 20 Dec they have 2 Y seats.
- for LH 510 there are no business class seats for those dates, but just F and Y.

For returning on 2, 3 Jan etc, I was pretty much told they could not see any data for January yet, and was advised to call back in a week or so.

So, have I been fed rubbish and I should just try keep calling? Or the seats are already all gone?

Just checked my M&M account again. Business class award seats are still available on:

LH 510 FRA - EZE 19 & 20 Dec.
LH 511 EZE - FRA 2 & 3 Jan, also 28 & 30 Dec.

No Economy seats are available on any of the dates but First class seats are available on most dates.

For LX96/97 ZRH-GRU Economy seats are available on most dates except 18 Dec. Business seats are available on 17, 23 & 24 Dec with return on 27-30 Dec or 3-6 Jan. I still cannot check GRU-SCL.

If you are interested in opening an M&M account I can refer you. When you credit one mile to your M&M account we can each receive 1000 bonus miles. Please PM me if you are interested.

Hi,


I am hoping (again) to bestow upon the kindness of someone here. I still have yet to book my tickets and wonder if there is any availability on LH FRA-CPT r/t in December in C for 2. I can check avail until the 7th myself. I need to return by the 24th.


Thanks and regards,


Eric
