Seat selection not possible
Juat checked in online for my (last) QR flight on coming Sunday (QR833) and got curios that I could not select / change my seat (business class). All seats are shown as “not available” beside mine and that at 14 booked out of 48 in business class.
Possibly an aircraft change coming?

Smells like a 777 switch. The last time they swapped that flight from a380 to 777 was May 28th.

Hope I am wrong but if right I hope it isn't a non-QSuite flight. Big difference in quality between J class a380 and and older 777.

We will cross us in Bangkok, arriving from Doha to Bangkok with QR 832. All seats blocked in the online check-in section but in my profile to manage the seats a lot of availability of seats. I see this discrepancy many time between managing the booking and seat selection during online check-in. Let’s see... Btw, keep up your great work to let QR know about your/our disappointment.

Yes I know but I guess if it will be a B777, most likely it will be an “old” one, with no possibility to upgrade...
Till now it ongoing shows the A380 (on QRCargo)

What a pitty, would have been good to meet up and discuss our “problems”...
That it is on both of our flights, is a quite strong indication for aircraft change, but let’s see..
Thank you for your encouragement - I’ll keep doing it :-) and I hope many others will join!
Have a great flight YENAKAD

if no Qsuite i will suck them out at the A380 bar with coctails as much as possible as a 'thank you QR' for all the latest "improvements" you gave to us...

And what you will do, if you get an old B777? No bar... ;-)
If I get an A380 tomorrow I’ll burn miles for the upgrade to first and will take ALL the Krug they have ;-) but maybe the don’t serve upgrades anymore with full first service due to a new “enhancement” hahaha
Unfortunately I think my 30 QCredits will expire in November...
however - cheers 🥂
