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!

I'm guessing that they are being held for FLUBs. Searching for the first class cabin causes an error, but the seats in 1-4 show as J - this is what I see:


Sorry, I'm a bit new to this!!

I am also right at the beginning of the learning curve. However, this looks like a 4 class aircraft where F has not been marketed on this route. Given that the rear cabins look pretty full, it will be interesting to see if FLUB materialises. As someone with no status, it is unlikely to affect me though.

Yes it is LGW! :-)

Plane has just gone from 14F and 48J down to 32J, so very worried about being downgraded as we are on Avios redemption using 241 voucher :-(

If all Business class fares are zero'd, is there any way to see if this is OverSold?

As I said up thread, I'm new to this! This is what I see in ExpertFlyer - but I think it's just seats reserved, not tickets booked (so if someone has booked into club world but hasn't reserved a seat, I don't know where they are!).

It looks full, though

Hi, if I could get an idea of what the flight loads are for BA33 LHR-KUL on 3 February? Trying to see if it is worth upgrading to WT+, if Y is relatively full. Thanks in advance!
