Current methods to check fare/booking class availability:
If you are requesting flight load / class availability, please provide the following:
1. Actual travel date (don't say tomorrow, or similar, as that is ambiguous given the global flyertalk membership)
2. Departure and arrival airport codes
3. Flight number
Thanks!

Please can someone check:

BA660 - LHR-CHQ - 4th September

And can someone indicate whether it implies it is busy or not.

Thanks

Also, the seat map shows 7 of 16 CE seats occupied (4 rows), with another 3 rows blocked at the front of ET. The rest of the ET cabin has ca 15 occupied seats.

So are these indications of a good load or quite an empty plane?

Does anyone know how busy the LHR-SFO flights are? I need to make an essential journey to SFO next week and I would like to travel whichever day is the least busy in Y. I know they probably all show Y9, so maybe Tuesday/Wednesday would be least busy?

4th July - LHR-SFO - BA287
5th July - LHR-SFO - BA287
6th July - LHR-SFO - BA287
7th July - LHR-SFO - BA287
8th July - LHR-SFO - BA287
9th July - LHR-SFO - BA287
10th July - LHR-SFO - BA287

Thank you!

From what I can see on Expert Flyer the availability in Y looks identical on all days, but slight differences in F. Some J selling classes zero'd out for 4 - 9 Jul

4th July - LHR-SFO - BA287 : F6 A5 J9 C0 D0 R0 I0 W9 E0 T0 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N0 Q0 O0 G9
5th July - LHR-SFO - BA287 : F5 A4 J9 C0 D0 R0 I0 W9 E0 T0 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N0 Q0 O0 G9
6th July - LHR-SFO - BA287 : F7 A6 J9 C0 D0 R0 I0 W9 E5 T0 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N0 Q0 O0 G9
7th July - LHR-SFO - BA287 : F5 A4 J9 C0 D0 R0 I0 W9 E5 T0 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N0 Q0 O0 G9
8th July - LHR-SFO - BA287 : F8 A7 J9 C0 D0 R0 I0 W9 E5 T0 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N0 Q0 O0 G9
9th July - LHR-SFO - BA287 : F7 A6 J9 C0 D0 R0 I0 W9 E5 T0 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N0 Q0 O0 G9
10th July - LHR-SFO - BA287 : F2 A1 J9 C9 D9 R9 I9 W9 E5 T0 Y9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N0 Q0 O0 G9

Hi, think I just posted this on the wrong thread

Please could someone check loads on two flights for me- ba451 and ba515 from pmi to lhr on 19/7/20 in Econ. Just going by prices I assume the 451 will be much busier and the seat map on expert flyer is showing literally all unreserved seats to be blocked, so wondering if the flight is actually full and the other would be better

Thanks in advance
