3 hours later every flight ex London for 3 days is full in Y??? And every flight ex JNB on 26th.

Are you looking at this month? It looks like there is no Y availability for those dates in August. £860 would be Y Flex + fares so it may just have sold out.

Indeed thanks. In the end I called up, apparently all London flights are sold out for 5 days.

Hi Guys,

Is there anyone who could please find out load on EK573 for tomorrow (18th August). I tried myself but couldn't, though I have the EF data.

Would really appreciate if someone can help!

Thanks :)

How do you mean?

Looks oversold. This is for 18th August (I assume by tomorrow you mean Friday and that you're in CCU).

Funny, I'll actually be in CCU next Wednesday for work for the day, but unfortunately flying AI (I think)

Haha yes I'm not being able to figure. I'm in CCU atm and I'm flying out tomorrow. They asked for 12k for OLCI upgrade. I know more people flying who have no status and they too got the same offer. Offer is still there since check-in opened last night.

AI to CCU on the 319?

12k just to DXB? Not bad, ~200$. From HYD I usually see ~300-400$.

There'll likely be many op-ups.

Yes, looks like it's either VT-SCA, SCB or SCC on most days, A319, from HYD (not DXB, or I'd be flying EK!). Back on Indigo (6E) A320 the same day. 4hrs of flying for 7 hours of work + lunch, yay! :D

Ive seen this flight's OLCI upgrade go for $80 also. But anyway you know I could get the class capacity booked for EK573 18AUG?

Have a good trip to CCU and on AI :cool:

You'd need to know an EK staff member with access. I know someone, but only occasionally ask for my flights as it's a favour by them and they're not really supposed to disclose it. But don't stress about it too much, it's almost certainly overbooked, assume you won't get an upgrade and you won't be disappointed, but might be positively surprised :D.

Hi there,

Would someone mind doing another check on the loads for:

EK160 OSL to DXB 18 August.

Most appreciated!

Thank you again skywardhunter.

Is 'P' class first? From what I've seen today seems to be a 2 class 777 when usually it is a 3 class 777.

No P is Business I think (EF lists classes in sequence of F, J, PY and Y, so as P appears before Y in the list it would appear to be a fare bucket belonging to business. IIRC it's one of the classes for awards/upgrades (Saver?)

F buckets are F (flex or flex plus), A - Saver :D and Z - F reward.

I think P may have been F some time ago but it's not anymore.

Yeah isn't it some kind of J Saver Award space? But there's also D, which doesn't appear on that flight at all which is odd.

Yeah, think I read P was 'suites' on EK. Just on way to airport and my seats have disappeared and can't look at seat map. Better not lose my good seats!

I think P is for the special upgrade offers they offer during OLCI

Anyone offer some advice on what would be the best dates to book my other half and kids (3yr and 4 months) from LHR to CRK in Y.
Really looking at booking in the first 2 weeks of September then a return in early March 2018.

tm84 Aug 20, 2017 12:29 pm

Me again!

Could someone let me know the loads for EK11 on 30 August?

Thanks!

It's the EK338 I'm more interested in, can anyone check which is the quietest flight outbound?

You need to say the destination - I only know ek19 as I fly to MAN a lot, as you can see 19 is very busy with no seats being sold in Y.

mrog88 Aug 21, 2017 8:17 am

Sorry... EK394 is Hanoi.

Thanks

Please could someone do a load check for me on the following routing - if possible +/- couple of days:

FRA - xDXB - PNH 03.Nov.17 (C/F cabin only) EK048 / EK388
PNH - xDXB - PNH 12.Nov.17 (C/F cabin only) EK388 / EK048

Many thanks!

That's a long way off - probably best to ask closer to the time!

Sorry - I might be missing something here....but I'm trying to book reward seats now around that time - if I wait until closer, what good is it going to be if the answer is F0, C0, etc... ?

I have not had access to the EK site for days.. (continuous technical error).

Have you tried a new browser window or deleting your cookies? You can search for award seats on the app as well. You're unlikely to get exactly the flights you want, so its a matter of checking multiple flights across multiple days, in such cases an ExpertFlyer subscription may be worth it (you can cancel after 1 month, so only 10$ and there's a free trial which is also sufficient if you just need a day or two to access).

The space listings given here do not include the upgrade and award fare buckets (Z, O, D, W and N).

You need ExpertFlyer or the EK website (or maybe there are more ways) for that.

How many have you got? You could always sell them.

There you go.

Hi all,

I'm doing the trial with EF and loving it! Just a question on the flight above. It was showing F4 A4 J7 C7 and the rest as 0. Today I7 has appeared so it is like the results lucafrost gave me.

All the economy is showing 0 but how do you know how much it is oversold by? Or do you just make an educated guess that it is oversold.

Thanks!

Educated guess, only internal EK Data Shows oversold data. EK generally will oversells by up to the number of unsold seats in higher cabins, so if J and F have combined 20 available and Y are all 0 it's likely oversold by 10-20. However individual flights all are slightly different based in revenue management's forecasts, if they reliably sell last minute J seats for example they might oversell Y a little less.

ft101 Aug 27, 2017 8:09 am

My guess is that it's impossible to interpret the numbers we see on here. A page or two ago I asked about flights of mine and the numbers given bore no resemblance to what could actually be purchased. There's just too much black magic.

Absolutely. Even the internal numbers. Had a flight last year which at T-48 was over by 20 in Y, I got all excited, it went out under by 2 or 3.

Hi there

Could someone please check loads on the following two flights (31st Aug)

EK303 (PVG-DXB)
EK027 (dxb-gla)
