Weird I class availability in December?
Hi all,
I'm trying to book an itinerary that requires I class availability on a CX flight from HKG to CEB. Absolutely everything for HKG-CEB in November is showing I9, absolutely everything in December (up to Christmas) is showing I0. The return CEB-HKG is I9 for November and December. Equally, both directions for e.g. HKG-MNL are I9 all the way through. So it's just that one specific flight with absolutely no I - does this sort of stuff happen often? Is it worth waiting or should I try to change my plans instead? HKG-MNL-CEB seems a bit of a waste of time... |
It is indeed peak season for HKG-CEB, but I think this is more likely RM locking out all the lowest inventory until they figure out the exact demand patterns. Since you mention that this is part of a bigger itinerary, also take into consideration married segment availabilities. |
Thanks - looks like BA's long-haul I fares can be combined with a Y on HKG-CEB... Slightly annoying because I'll be paying the same price for Economy instead of Business, but at least it's only 2 hours.
Interestingly, Premium Economy is also 0'ed out completely according to Expertflyer, but still bookable through Cathay's website. |
