rocketmanbkk Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 I was trying to find out whether a specific flight was busy or not for a certain date. I was led to the expertflyer.com website, never heard or knew about it before. Signed up f rthe 5 day trial. Seems all OK. Has or does anyone ever use/d this? Is it pretty accutate? Is the seat availability in real'ish terms? i.e the unoccupied seats are unsold? It seem spretty good and the flight I am booked on seems pretty empty. Qatar Airways 006. Any experience from frieds here? Cheers all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the seat availability in real'ish terms? i.e the unoccupied seats are unsold? Yes-ish, but passengers can be ticketed but not yet have a seat assignment; and in some cases it is possible to get a seat assignment without having the ticket issued. Maybe you could just tell us what you're trying to do? Guage loads to stand-by? Upgrade? On many airline booking engines, and some aggregators', you can make a dummy (sale or award) booking and get to a seatmap for specific flights.

rocketmanbkk Posted June 5, 2011 Author Share Posted June 5, 2011 Thx for your reply. All I was tryimng do do was to see whether a Qatar flight to Doha and then onto BKK was busy or not. I can see the LHR - DOH leg which looks pretty empty but I never knew if this was accurate or not. If it is quite accurate then I may be able to spread out on both legs as well as the return legs, hopefully anyway. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
