Staff Travel - Caring Company

Just traveling (p25) from North America > HK.
Flight looked great 0F, 10+B, 1Y seats available. I was highest Pri (only 2 listed).
I did not get a seat ???
Showed checkin agent the Availability App which showed seats avail etc.
He said (he was very helpful) that's all correct "BUT" CX does "NOT" show PXing crew in those figures!!
He also indicated that other airlines (e.g. AA) "Do" show these in the totals so the info their Staff Travel app shows IS correct.

More Smiley Face BS...

Try IdDeals.com
Ex BA cabin crew guy (Ian Wilson) has set up an excellent site that will give very accurate loads (inc staff listings). I think the annual subs are about £10 or so.
We found it invaluable last year.

Can endorse iddeals too and have used it for many years.

Stafftraveller is an interesting app too. Airline staff ask for loadings on flights and other airline staff provide the number of seats available from their own company travel systems. You get a credit for helping and lose credit when helped. If you need more credits, you can buy them.

It won't help you with CX but, if people are honest, it will help you with other airlines. Useful to supplement iddeals and the Cx travel smiley faces.
