Booked my wife in F July 20 return Aug 28, MNL HKG YVR, JFK, then JFK YVR HKG MNL and waitlisted myself as I was unable to book 2 F award tickets. What are the chances of the waitlist clearing and if so when does it usually clear? Thank you

I'm trying to book 2 business class tickets from HKG to LAX for 05 Oct and return on 19 Oct. I've been waitlisted.. can anyone here help me check what the chances are of it clearing?

Wanna redeem before June 22nd comes.

Thank you in advance!

Every flight I9
But chances any seat will be released is remote because new rates will apply on North America (this is precisely why you're trying to rush thru the clearing right?)

Have been waitlisted on the following flights:

July 5th CX883 Los Angeles to Hong Kong
July 6th CX691 Hong Kong to Singapore

July 9th CX658 Singapore to Hong Kong
July 9th CX882 Hong Kong to Los Angeles

I signed up for ExperFlyer but have no idea how to see what my chances of getting these flights ticketed. Can someone help out here? Thanks.

Best you can do is go to the "Flight Availability" tab, punch in your departure then your destination, followed by the date, then put CX in the airlines box, click "search", and you will see the seats remaining in the list of "available classes", if any seats are still available for your fare class it will show it here. How one determines if you will get cleared for the waitlist and ticketed remains unclear to me. Not sure when waitlists are cleared and or if it goes by first to place themselves on the waitlist or if MPC status plays a factor. Booked my wife award seat in F for a flight to the US, and waitlisted myself for the same flight, no clue if I will clear or not though.

I looking at either some flight to Japan or Da Nang during CNY 19 - I know, I'm too late and its most likely going to be impossible. However, there are various waitlists available. I was hoping to use my wife's miles which are expiring next year, however, she is SL (I am DM). How much does status mean on waitlists? Am I better off doing it?

Waitlisting 3 Tickets (1 First and 2 Business)
22/9: CX251
23/9: CX255
29/9: CX254
30/9: CX252
any chances of getting ALL cleared?
plan to connect to BA878 on 23/9 in Club Europe
and BA232 in First on 29/9

You shall really pay for ExpertFlyer (or at least sign up for the free trial?). Anyway,

you can waitlist using her account then call them and harrase them. am would then be able to advice. heh heh

yes. cx clears rather well.

you know schools (well, the good unis) are starting late sept earlt oct? i dont think cx has problems selling tickets at YBH levels - my cousin spent 20K a few years ago for a work trip around those times.

you will not get it without using a DM guarantee.

How do you know when your waitlist has cleared, and how does CX normally inform you? Received a call I was unable to answer at the time, an Asia Miles number from HK, but not a toll free number. I'm waiting to be cleared for a flight on July 20, so debating if I should call Asia Miles and see what the call was about or just wait and see?

text message and email (with the title: Change of your booking status).

Where is a place to search award availability that works? I'm searching ORD-HKG and I've done searches many times successfully. BA.com rarely works, and when it does it only finds AA flights. Qantas.com does not find any Cathay space - just AA and China Eastern. AsiaMiles.com logs me in then gives an error if I try to search (Your session has been timed out or invalid, please login again [facadeSearchIBE_USR005_S002] (IBE_USR005_S002) which is super useful).
