Hi everyone,

I am off to Florida in just over a weeks time.

I was wondering whether anyone could tell me how busy the flights are as we are booked to fly in the economy section of bubble and do not really want to go downstairs if it is not that busy but never mind!

LGW-MCO VS27 23rd April
MCO-LGW VS28 7th May

Thank you in advance!

kind regards,

Ross.

Thank you for that!

Would this mean that they will be using the economy section of the bubble?

Thanks again!

Ross.

Hi Ross,

I think they only close the bubble for very light-load flights. Which it doesn't look like yours is. Note that PE is full or near-full for both flights, meaning that the front PE section of the bubble would likely be in use. I can't say with certainty but I very much doubt they'd close the Economy section of the bubble, but not the PE section.

That being said - the load factor David posted doesn't paint the full picture - it only shows the number of tickets that are made available in each fare bucket. There are at least 9 more economy tickets available. It could be exactly 9, or it could be 209. No way of knowing!

Brilliant, thank you for that useful information!

Fingers crossed we will get upstairs then!

Kind regards,

Ross
