SEATMAP.COM an useful tool

[Ariel]

Hi all!
Have you used seatmap.com?
You can check availability, by fare class, and seats also.
I've replaced my previous tools with this one.
You can even check availability from etour (in japanese), which, sometimes, has updated information.
Have a look, and give me your opinion!

Great site!!!

I was sweating an upgrade on GUM to MAD via HNL and EWR on May 9th, hoping somebody would cancel GUM to EWR as the front of the bus was sold out.

After checking seatmap.com, I changed to May 8th via NRT rather than HNL and got an immediate R class upgrade.

Good deal, not to mention the slightly more direct routing.

Actually, the last time I looked, Tokyo was North and West of Guam while Newark is way East.

I won't get to pick up any Kona Peaberry coffee in Honolulu but at least I'll get to watch seven hours of Japanese TV in Tokyo.

GUM-HNL-EWR-MAD is 12411 mi
GUM-NRT-EWR-MAD is 11926 mi

Or did I misunderstand your new routing?

My bad . . . I thought the world was flat

Ya mean besides missing the coffee I lost 485 FF miles? Bummer

I never said I was perfect.

When it comes to that sort of distance, I think that your sanity is what matters more -- even in the new businessfirst seats.

"Z0," "Z5," etc. are no brainers, no Z seats, five Z seats, etc., but what does "ZL" mean . . . Lots? Later? LOL?

L: Waiting list
A: Available (used sometimes, when there is too many seats)
C: Closed (Waiting list closed)
