Hi ExpertFlyer Voice

I have the following 2 issues:

Issue 1

With QF seat maps, First cabin maps are not loading for flights departing in the next ~24 hours. You get an error:"The requested information could not be retrieved or is not available. This is likely due to invalid input criteria or lack of access to the information from the airline. Please revise the search parameters and try again."

Business, Premium Economy and Economy seat maps are not impacted and display fine.

Issue 2

I have my Date Format in my preferences set to dd/mm/yy. Throughout the UI, this mostly works fine - however this particular component in the UI still displays it as mm/dd/yy. Flight Availability, Awards & Upgrades etc screens are impacted. I reported this during the beta testing but didn't hear anything back yet.

Hi EF, thank you for fixing the seat alert issue where we could only set an alert for one seat at a time on BA.

Here’s something new - BA664 is showing Y9 on August 15 but the seat map is saying there’s only 1 seat left. Is this because the blocked seats are still showing as occupied and this issue has yet to be fixed? Screenshots attached.

Are there blocked seats showing as occupied by EF on this map? Yes, a ton (source: seats.aero). However,, even if the seat map were accurate you cannot guarantee to match that up to availability. Some people may not have assigned seats yet. There could be oversale. But yes, the biggest problem with the EF map you show is that they still have not fixed the bug with blocked seats showing as occupied.

I wanted to draw your attention to this post in the BA Forum:

TL-DR it talks about the difference in availability between Point of Sale, and Point of Commencement. Lufthansa Group and now BA have moved to PoC so availability displays in Expertflyer using PoS are now no longer accurate.

Feature Request - please can you add in a field that allows you to specify the PoC for an availability search.

I fear that without this, EF will become increasingly unreliable for us European folk that travel LHG and IAG airlines. I’m sure AFKL will follow suit in the not too distant future.

Hello EF,

PFO-LGW Aug 24 - BA2781. I received an email alert saying R class availability is available but when I go to check, it most definitely isn’t with C being the lowest and this is despite the EF Flight Availability results still showing R. Screenshots attached.

Yes and Yes but this was a question for EF as their system says R is available. Many thanks.
