Could an admin change the thread title to indicate this was via OLCI? Thanks!
Hi guys,

Weird situation:
4 of us checking into QF774 using OLCI, all booked into economy. 1 x QFNB, 1 x QFPS, 2 x QFSG.

1 x SG QFF gets 4A (me)
1 x SG QFF gets 5F
PS gets something towards the middle
NB gets 1A

(We're all booked into economy, and have all been charged for economy flights.)

WTF?

I checked the seat selection page - rows 1-3 were definitely available for selection (only a few seats taken). Wonder what's going on? Some sort of extremely early, extremely lucky op-up? Or more likely a glitch with OLCI?

Will be interesting to see what happens when boarding.

Cheers,
- Febs.

Perhaps an all Y config?

Wasn't aware there was such a thing (on common QF domestic routes like this).

The seat selection map did show 2x2 configuration for rows 1-3, which would fit with a J configuration I believe.

The seatmap linked from the Qantas booking shows 12J 156Y too.

Edit: and the other 3 of us aren't able to view seating for rows 1-3, as per normal for OLCI in economy.

Cheers,

For today, QF are definitely selling J seats ADL-SYD on QF774 on a 73H.

Single class from memory were 734's

Maybe just got lucky?

Find out soon enough I guess.
(As you noted too, I made a mistake in the title. Should be ADL-SYD.)

Flight looks to be pretty full too (perhaps as expected for a Friday evening).

Pity it wasn't you Feb's that scored what looks like an elusive op-up.

QFPS?
QFSG?

Sorry mate, becomes second nature around here. I was confused as hell when I first joined up.

OLCI = On-line check-in
QF = Qantas
NB = "Nothin' bronze"
PS = "Plebian Silver"
SG = "Scum Gold"
WP = "Wanker Platinum"
URAFW = Right back at ya, champ.

I guess nutcase you would have missed all of the frequent flying acronyms given all your posts seem to be in the CC forums - except for an old rant at frequent flyers.

So Febs - will you calling someone when you are onboard to update them of the outcome so they can post here before you land

I'll do you one better and post from the plane before take-off.
