"Is My Flight Full" - Post Covid Edition

[stanleycamel]

For any Dibbers wanting to check on their flights this is the information that you need to use:-


Date
Flight number
Departure and arrival airports


as it really helps the Dibb members who respond when checking how the flight looks - please don't assume we remember flight details even the regular ones.

Happy to check any airlines/destinations and will post a reply even if it turns out that they don't appear on the systems used. Please feel free to ask on this thread



Please also bear in mind that Tui/Thomson flights cannot be checked as they are charters and Low Cost Carriers(LCC's) as they operate on a different sales method.


Terms you may see being used are:-

Blocked means - The airline operating the route are holding the seats back - this can be for a number of reasons such as group travel, paid for seating, infant cot positions, allocation to a codeshare partner etc. It is up to them when they chose to release them and are often scattered all over the cabin(s).

Wide open means - only a small proportion of seats already chosen. This does not reflect the number of tickets the airline can/are still willing to sell.

OLCI means - online check in usually opening 24 hours before departure.

Fare buckets - putting it simply each cabin is split into a number of different fares with different terms and conditions ranging from (in non Covid times) non-changeable/non refundable to fully flexible/fully refundable. They are referred to as fare buckets and they are all given a letter of alphabet to distinguish each one - usually the cheapest/lowest fares tend to go first especially for leisure travel. So the busier the flight the higher the fare buckets are left. There can be as many as 250+ fares for one flight - all with different rules. and the above explanation doesn't even cover things like advance purchase limitations and much much more.


Any replies will reflect the date and time of the request and will be subject to change especially if the request for availability is months in advance/school holiday dates.

Thanks so much - good to see a busy flight and glad I have my J seats booked a while back (can’t wait to get my butt on those seats)

Not sure if I am allowed to say but if anyone else is on these flights and wants to come into the CH with me then send me a DM (OP please delete if not allowed) MFx
