Unsold seats - are fares reduced again?
Hi all
Am trying to get another passenger added onto our flight but there is only one economy seat remaining and emirates have bumped up that fare so it is not possible for us to change their flight yet ( don't wish to pay the additional fare costs).
------
J7 C7 I7 O7 Y1 E1 R0 W0 M0 B0 U0 K0 H0 Q0 L0 T0 V0 X0
-----
Flight is on 11 Dec 2011
Does the above mean the flight is fully booked for economy with one remaining seat?
Is it likely that emirates will bring down the fare price closer to the flight date? If so when is that most likely to be?
Thanks

It is possible that EK releases cheaper seats but I'd say it's just as likely that EK stops selling economy altogether (Y=0.) If it is important to be on this flight, change it now. If not, EK does often release seats closer to departure...

how are you checking the price?
If you are doing it online, clear the cache on your computer, I also got a cheaper fare through doing the flight search via my Skywards profile than direct search on the EK website for the same dates.
