Hi Ellliefree

Penny_L is right, check away!

But is there anything particular reason why you want to know? General curiosity? Hoping to upgrade with cash/miles? The context would be useful if you have any follow up questions

I'm not convinced by the accuracy of flightstats, for instance, I just did a load check for my flight on vs20 this Sunday, flightstats show 1 seat in J whereas Carlson Wagonlit shows 5....perhaps Carlson is wrong, but I doubt it.

Yeah, but all those "seats" could be ones that are oversold :w

Interesting, now flightstats shows exactly the same as Carlson....the really interesting thing is there's more seats appearing by the day.
