Minimum number of travelers
 
With news of U.S. airlines' recent introduction of fares requiring a minimum number of travelers, would it be possible to add a new column to the Fare Information Results screen that shows the minimum (and I guess maximum) number of travelers? It seems to me that this could be displayed alongside Min / Max Stay, Adv Purchase Req, etc.

I realize that some U.S. airlines have walked back this attempt to introduce these fares, but at last check AA had not and other airlines could always introduce them again in the future.

My inbox is currently being flooded with mostly aircraft change notifications but some schedule changes too (which are showing no change). What’s more, all of the scheduled times shown for the aircraft changes are completely wrong. What’s going on and will I need to redo all of them again?

Oh no, not again. Hopefully it's not another database issue like what happened last year (?)

My inbox too.

Same - and SMS too?! Never received SMS alerts before... I'm also getting them over and over again for the same flights (and no, I didn't have the alert set more than once per flight).

Same issue as you - it's super annoying!

I'm sure this has been ask/answered somewhere but I couldn't find it in a search... did BA stop publishing/allowing access to seat maps on the day of a flight?

If they did, it’s within the past 7 days. I suspect that, unfortunately, it’s another EF tool that has broken.

Do you mean on their app/site or via ExpertFlyer? Either way, no - this is not my experience and I can access the seat map on ExpertFlyer even after I’ve boarded. As for BA and if you’ve already downloaded your boarding pass or you haven’t checked-in by their stated deadline, then that’s the point at which you’ll no longer be able to view the seat map.

Yeh I mean Expert Flyer. flying today, and last night could see the seat map, but not today. Tried over BA flights today and it also errors... flights for tomorrow onwards are fine though.

ExpertFlyer peeps, any comment on this please - the deluge continued overnight.

That’s odd, unless EF is broken today which might be the case given the email dump. If you’d like me to take a look, please confirm the flight number. Oh, and if BA is broken, EF will be too…

I’m on BA754 but I tried every BSL flight today (AUS too, just to check if it was only short haul)
