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 have always wondered whether I am right in giving people the UK position. It is my default position on EF as it is where I live but this is a great example of how the availability can differ depending on where the ticket is to be sold. This is a weird quirk of airline tickets that I don't fully understand the rationale behind it.

Thanks snaxmuppet.

I guess I will be paying for the WT+ to CW then! My gold card certainly won't do me any favours when it is this wide open!
They are offering it for only CAD$504/£288 each way, so a bit of a no brainer.
Again, thanks

That sounds excellent value. I'd snap that up! Have a great trip

Thankyou - I never remember how to interpret this but it basically says there are 9 or more Y seats unsold and at least 8 in the CE cabin too?

i think it’s best to say that BA is still prepared to sell up to 9 seats in Euro Traveller and up to 8 seats in Club Europe. Also the max number shown in Expert Flyer is 9 so BA may be prepared to sell more seats in Euro Traveller. It does not mean how many seats are left unsold.
The seat map function on Expert Flyer does not seem to work on this flight at the moment.
