Hi All,

I'm wondering if anyone can help me with the above?

I've been checking for Premium economy reward seats releasing in Dec 2018 for Lon to Johannesburg. Seems like only economy and business class reward seats are being released??

I thought initially it was because they were being booked out by people but then I stayed up way past my bedtime and was on the virgin website as soon as the next day's reward seats were released. No Premium economy reward seats have been released after Nov 2018.

Can anyone shed a light on the above?

My dates are coming up soon and any help would be appreciate.

Thanks.

They only release seats 330 days before the flight which is why no seats will have been released after November 2018.

As mentioned in my post, economy and uc reward seats have been released for Dec 2018....but no pe reward seats.

Could they be ex Air Berlin aircraft, so no PE?

Not sure how to check if it's an ex Air Berlin aircraft.....

Seems to be a Boeing 787-9 aircraft

There are PE seats but just not reward ones...

All you can do is keep checking. Reward seats can and do appear at any time, there is no discernible pattern to it.

may be worth ringing as I have had success on a different route by ringing. At the time there were no flights showing online but for whatever reason the virgin agent found reward seats to book.

Might try ringing when my dates come out in a few days.... I tweeted VA and they say that availability will pop up but uncertain as to when.

It won’t be anything to do with that as the ex-Air Berlin A/C are not going anywhere near any of the LHR routes.
