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!

Thank you! Another quick question if I may. An upgrade to WTPis available but we’d only take it if the bassinet seats are available. Can you see whether they are on BA2063 on 30 Sept? I think they’re front row of WTP so row 10....?

The front row is row 12 on this 3 class plane and there are 3 rows so the old 777 non refurbished Traveller Plus.

48J24W203Y | The BA Source

12 AB and JK are showing as available on Expert Flyer and as a Gold I can seem to select them on a dummy booking and IIRC they're not bassinet seats, they're showing as available on Expert Flyer.12E and F are showing as bassinet seats though.

I'm not sure whether the front row is available to Silvers, maybe someone else can answer that.

Out of curiosity how much is the upgrade showing?

thats awesome, thank you. We booked through a TA as it’s part of a holiday. We upgraded inbound to WTP for a total of £122 (I jumped at that for two adults and an infant) and I think the outbound upgrade is a total of £595. It’s looking attractive as I don’t particularly relish the idea of holding our son for the whole 12hr flight.

Hi all - first post as I'm slightly nervous about my flight tomorrow. If I was to be bumped off it does mean that I may have to start a new job late, which isn't amazing. At this point (T-28) it seems that only one seat is available for purchase by Blue.

Please could someone check the following?

BA0015 LHR-SYD 13 September?

Have been ticketed as S and this would be the flight that gets me enough tier points to get to Bronze (will be first tier progression in my life, apart from Uber, heh).
Also as Sydney is the final destination, I'm not adverse to taking Cathay Pacific and have a layover in HK. If I was to get bumped, would this be a valid alternative to ask for? Especially as the journey only starts an hour later...

Thanks so much!
