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!

Hello
please can someone help with roughly how busy BA409
VLC-LHR looks today 10 October
I realise it’s not exact but if it looks likely to be quiet I’d offer not to rush to board but I only have one small had luggage that I don’t want to end up in the hold but as in exit row I can’t put it under the seat.

Thanks in advance

Yes, it looks pretty full.

The 74% / 26m is the on time percentage, with the average minutes late of the rest over the past two months.
