Hi guys, im flying to MCO next april (23rd) (VS27 and back on Vs28)and hoping to fly in the bubble. I understand that if economy not full dowstairs, i hear they move people from the bubble in economy downstairs.

I was wondering does this flight at this time of year get full up? I will ve very upset if they move us downstairs as never been in the bubble before!

Thanks,

Kind regards,

Ross.

hi
never been at that time of year but been in the bubble on quiet flights before (September / January were the quietest times)
we have used the bubble at least 20 times and have never been moved

Thank you for your message.

I guess it will be just a case of waiting to see! Il try and have a look how many seats have been sold!

Thanks again

I'm up top from MAN in February. being the first Saturday in half term I'm presuming it will be a full flight.

For the upper deck to be "closed", it has to be completely empty in both Premium Economy & Economy so that the exit doors do not need to be manned.

I'd be very surprised if this was the case in April next year - the weather in Florida is normally rather nice at that time of year. As had already been stated, I'd only expect the risk of a bubble closure in the lowest of the low-season. One January trip I did to Orlando had under 160 passengers onboard - so about 300 empty seats.

i flew back from MCO in the bubble 3-4 years ago, mid-january

it's quieter up there, and row 75 is excellent as you've several feet of legroom ahead, only downside is the tray table is in the arm rest so the seat is a bit narrower, it was the only time i had a good sleep in EC unaided by powerful drugs

Excellent, thank you so it sounds highly unlikely that i will be moved down.

It will just be a case of wait and see!
