Trying To Learn How To Load Check Using ITA Matrix

I am trying to learn how to load check UC using ITA Matrix.

For route/date I enter the following in the advanced routing code box:

VS / f bc=j|bc=c|bc=i|bc=z|bc=g

Fare results are returned, but I am looking for results like these:
84% / 35m J0 C0 D0 I0 Z0 W9 S9 H9 K9 Y9 B9 R9 L9 U9 M9 E9 Q9 X9 V0 N0 O0

Am I not searching in the correct place?

Thank you all in advance, this site and forums rock!

I wasn't aware ITA Matrix did load checks.

Expertflyer.com is your friend I think.

Expert Flyer indeed. What route/date/airline are you looking for?

ITA Matrix won't give you that information, the free service was the Flightstats Availability search, but that was withdrawn about 18 months ago (IIRC). Only EF (subscription only) gives what you want nowadays unless you know someone in the industry. The good thing is that if you say what you're looking for, then someone here is likely to search EF and post the results for you, since you've done that, here it is for VS116 7 Sep ATL-LHR:

J9 C9 D9 I9 Z9 W9 S9 H9 K9 Y9 B9 R9 L9 U9 M9 E9 Q9 X9 V9 N9 O9

Thank you so much for the info and the load check!

It looks like the flight is not very busy if I am interpreting properly?

Thanks again!

That's as wide open as it can be on Expertflyer - 9's across the board.

It means that they are willing to sell 9 (or more) seats in each of UC, PE and Y

For UC for example - J9 C9 D9 I9 Z9 - it's the J figure that matters as C/D/I and Z are all sub fares of J. You don't add 5 sets of 9 and go '45 available' !
