Can someone interpret this one? This is DXB-MNL EK336 30-Oct. The strange part is Business Saver (O) is 7 and higher buckets are 4. Are they preparing to oversell Y?

What does the % represent?

Maybe the percentage that is more or less delayed than the average delay?

Hi everyone,

Is it possible some one could check the loads for:

LHR to DXB EK8 13/10

DXB to SIN EK352 13/10

Thank you!

It's the % of the time the flight is on time.

If anyone needs to check flight loads on ExpertFlyer, we do offer a 5-day free trial so you can do so yourself.

Yeah but how do you define on time? On or before scheduled arrival? Within X mins?

Please look at the wiki, we're very conscious that EF is a great and paid service and you'll see many of the loads come with a note that there is indeed a free trial and month to month subscription, and we don't provide loads more than 7 days out, many of the regulars here are big EF fans and subscribers, keep up your great work!

As an EF representative, it would be interesting to get your thoughts on examples such as the one quoted if possible? As opposed to repeating what many members already advise in regards to free trials.

We don't mind members volunteering ExpertFlyer data to help fellow FTers. However we would prefer that those who may consistently solicit the FT community for ExpertFlyer data as a way to avoid paying for a subscription themselves to rethink that strategy.

Completely agree and that is what I consistently do. I am a great EF fan (although I have seen more discrepancies between EK and EF availability both in paid buckets and awards recently). I also think it is worth pointing out the possibility to very easily 'pause' the subscription on a monthly basis when not required (I do this myself as my travel seems to be a bit in 'waves').

Having said that, can you PLEASE answer the question about on time reliability? When is a flight 'on time'? Does it need to be at or before the planned gate arrival? Or less than (for instance) 15 minutes late? This is not a crucial bit of information, but as it was asked it would be nice to have it answered by an EF representative!

On time is defined as within 15 minutes of the scheduled gate arrival time.
