    I've put together a site that monitors British Airways reward seat availability and I can send people alert emails or text messages when new reward seats are made available for their desired flights.

    It's called SeatSpy.com

    It's designed to save you from having to constantly check the British Airways site for new reward seat availability. It also shows all reward seat availability for a year on one page making it easier to plan.

    It's in Beta at the moment and completely free, including the text alerts and email alerts to let you know as soon as a new reward seat is released for the flight you want. I originally posted this in the Virgin Atlantic thread as I had Virgin Atlantic working first, but now it includes British Airways flights.

    I wanted to reach out to frequent flyers to get some live people to review its operation and to let me know if it was useful or not. Could I ask people to give it a go and see what you think? If nothing else, it might help you track down reward seat availability for an upcoming flight.

    If people could message me with thoughts and feedback, I'd really appreciate it.

    Thanks, Stephen.

    Amazing stuff, great work. Do you just screen scrape and then cache or have you got a cleverer method?

    Any chance of adding United/ANA and Iberia?

    My plans were definitely to add more airlines if people find the service useful.

    I'm not getting much feedback so not sure if people are just trying it out and then not thinking it's worth it or not. I'm using a combination of methods for the data.

    It works great, like how you can search all cabins at the same time! Also the see where you can go option. I know it is still in Beta but might be good to be able to specify either short,mid or long, or continent or maybe a sliding scale of flight time to limit the option coming up.

    set up a few alerts already for later in the year, very user friendly and easy to read
