    Jocamo,
    If you are referring to my original post, then I actually AM referring to CDG or Paris-Charles De Gaulle. My point was to avoid the Paris flights.

    Just an FYI for all Delta Buddy Passes and subload pax. The following was recently issued. NOTE: I believe this also applies to OAL (other airline emp/subload pax) because they fly on the same priority with even lower seniority than the affected Buddy Passes. Please check out.

    FROM DL PASS BUREAU...
    The embargo on Family & Friends (Buddy Pass) travel involving Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport (CDG) has begun and runs through Aug. 31. The action is a result of the partial roof collapse in Terminal 2E at CDG in May. Delta has prohibited Buddy Pass travel without exception to, from and through the French capital, including travel to and from CDG on Air France and all SkyTeam partners. The action does not apply to nonrevenue travel by employees, their dependents, parents or travel companions. Those already booked to CDG during this period will be able to change their destination to other European cities, and Delta will waive the change fee. Any applicable difference in the yield fare will be charged. They may also request a refund of their yield fare tickets if they wish. Currently, but subject to change, Buddy Pass travel to and from CDG will resume Sept. 1. Though employee nonrevenue travel to CDG is permitted during the Buddy Pass embargo, employees are encouraged to make alternate travel plans if possible.

    Hi, I'm new and have found your postings VERY helpful. I've just done my first transatlantic NR, with a pretty horrible return from CDG (see my posting a few days ago). I consider it, as well as all the info from you and other NR forumers, as a learning experience. Now my wife and I want to go back, but in summer, so we are weighing options; the potential pain of NR becomes more bearable as the confirmed prices skyrocket as they do in summer.
    Like everyone else, I'd like to know the secret to finding out loads, but I see it is a dicey proposition. Here are my 2 cents worth: Air France has an automated number (in France,in French) where they claim to predict likelihood of AF non-rev seats, though it looks like it too must be taken with a grain of salt. It's 33 820 847 847.
    My qustion: does anyone know similar numbers for other European carriers?
    LH? Swiss? AZ? IB?
    Thanks.
