Hello everyone,
can someone pull out the load in Economy on LH4368/4Y10 for November 8th? the seat map looks pretty wide open but I'm guessing lots of people haven't paid to select their seats yet.... I wanted to see if I should pay to get the seat I want or if it will pretty much half full so there will be some freedom to move around and snatch 2 or 3 seats in a row
TIA

Could someone assist with estimating the loads in F on GRU-FRA LH507 around dates 1.12. to 4.12. ? I am trying to maximize my chances of getting a seat in F. If anyone has any idea of what the best way to go about it is... I would like to use award miles/upgrade vouchers if possible but I see no award availability in F at all. If I book an award flight in J, I can't use vouchers to attempt to upgrade that to F can I? Thanks for any hints!
29.11: F4A4
30.11 F4A3
01.12 F5A3
02.12 F1A0
03.12 F4A0
04.12 F3A0
05.12 F1A0
06.12 F3A1
You can't apply vouchers to an award booking, but you can rebook your award from J to F if availability shows up later on.

Thank you very much, that is very helpful! If no availability shows up in F, aren't award J's cancellable as well? To possibly risk paying for a J and then attempting an upgrade.

Does anybody know if LH Group actually publishes their award booking classes with availability via e.g. ExpertFlyer?
reason I ask… M&M shows availability for a specific flight, but ExpertFlyer has „0“ seats.

Hi,
I would appreciate if someone could post the loads for the following flights. Also, if they can remind me how the loads work for upgrading from economy to business using UA PP? Thanks

For Pluspoints upgrade availability, you would need upgrade availability on the segment you want to use your points, otherwise, you would be waitlisted for that segment if you wish to. You would need to contact United MileagePlus to request the upgrade - I am not sure if it could be requested online or if you need to call in.
