Capetonian, that is not such a secret. Just get closer to someone behind a ck-in desk at the airport (even abroad) and you get all the magic numbers.
Check in staff generally only have access to DCS and don't see loads and prognoses for future flight dates.

Reply to MerAir, I don't know why they are punishing us either. But they are. It seems they are on a mission to punish us any way they can find. The only thing I can think of, is that the wheels have well and truely fallen off, and they can't blame themselves, so they are blaming us.

In GUI and ABC system regular check in staff can see loads only for few days in advance, but those who know how to use black screen - EMACS staff (departure control), check in and boarding supervisors, staff travel agents, first and business class check in staff, waiting list counter staff, denied boarding staff and some economy check in staff can see it for months in advance.

Nikita81, Saying getting closer to someone st the airport desks I was meaning calling them from home without even going there and asking
And as many as you said have access to all info, except us.
90% expats in EK, all of them use the stby tickets (which are not even that cheap!) to go home or travel on a regular basis, no prevision loads shown anymore, lesser and lesser days off in a row. What next?
On top of that, the sad observation that this is just to punish us.

Yes, well... they cancelled it for everyone, no one can see the actual load on TRIPS. So they punished everyone, not just pilots and cc. But, airport operation can not function without access to future loads, so they couldn't cancel it from the black screen.

If they did it because someone was selling the load info, it's a stupid move as they opened the doors for every single ground staff to sell the info now.

I think that money is the motivator for their decision and that "selling the info" story is a lie.
