Current methods to check fare/booking class availability:
  • Expertflyer.com $99 / year
  • KVS Fees vary
  • Travel Agent friends
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!

FInally decided to buy, but BA says no flights available that day. Free EF seat availability check shows it's wide open.
Thank you!​​​​​
Here you go, UK POS:



Either completely full or zero'ed out pending cancellation. I would suspect the latter.

Here you go UK POS - I have guessed the return flight is 5th April as the 5th Mar maybe a typo as it is a historic date. Or did you mean 5th May?

Yes you're right (5th April for inbound) thanks for spotting!

Quick question...we booked WT for outbound and have been both been upgraded to WTP during online check-in <24hrs... based on these loads in WT I have no idea why we've been upgraded? If WT is empty I'd rather lay across 4 seats as WTP doesn't allow this

Hi. Would someone mind checking availability/load in First BA 213 LHR BOS 18 Aug please. I've noticed a few days around this date where First is showing 'not available' on ba.com all of a sudden. Thanks.

Here you go, UK POS:




Seat map shows all First booked or blocked:



There is F and A availability on the BA203 and BA239 that day (both F6 A3).

The fact that 6 are blocked may possibly mean there could be a change of aircraft type to an 8 seat first class aircraft as an outside guess. Hence them not currently selling the current blocked seats. This is just a guess though.

Thanks. Yes, that was my creeping concern. I'm booked on the 213. Been chasing an A380 flight for two years now.
