It tells you the flight details, aircraft type, average delays and how many seats ( up to a max of 9 ) are available for purchase in each fare code.

Not quite.
If the number is less than 9 that means that actual number available for sale. If it is 9 that means 9
or more so it could mean 10,l1,23 or 103 (well depending on the cabin capacity)

Would I be correct in thinking that both flights are pretty quiet at the mo going on those figures?
Thank you
Ben

Ben,
Looks like Y is busy on the outbound, W a little busy on the return.
Out of interest, why ask for a load check if you're unsure how to read it? Also, why is it of use a month out?

To be fair it wasn't Ben that asked how to read it.
I may be speaking heresy but I am not sure what use a load check is at anytime to be honest. The figures can change at anytime and people make assumptions that may not be valid e.g. a row of 9's = empty flight when it could actually be only 9 tickets left in that cabin / bucket

Hi,
Just another quick question on the load check detaile.
TT desnt seem to show reward seats such as G. Any reason for this?
Regards

That load check only shows Economy and Premium Economy buckets and because you can't buy a reward seat with cash, those codes are not shown.
FC miles reward
fare codes are
G for UC,
P (or U) for PE and
T for Economy. I'm sure UC availability can be found on sites like Expert Flyer.
If you sign up for a paid membership here you get 20 free searches on EF, or you can sign up there for $99 per year.

Expert Flyer sometimes shows reward availability, but this is very very very rare. I think on the occasions it does show, someone has maybe ticked the wrong box at EF.
It does show reward availability of other airlines.
