As far as I know you can only see how many seats have been prebooked. Just go through to the choose your seat part (you don't have to book any) and see which ones are already chosen.

Because of the many cancellations I went through that exact process yesterday Keith, for our easyJet flight LGW/DLM in August.
I know it's 5 months away and off course it's not an exact science..but, the total reserved was only ten! ( and two of those were ours) like many have said, the numbers are not looking good are they?

Well, as a basic comparison I tried LGW to Tenerife in mid August on Easyjet - seats prebooked = 18

So you could say no big problem. Or you could take the Daily Mail view of that with "half as many seats are being prebooked to Turkey compared to the Canary Islands"   ;)

I'll check our May booking later to see how Monarch are fairing.

32 including us two have booked seats from LB on 23/05/16. Could be worse I guess as I know many will have booked via agents for holidays in hotels. Many check in at airport as well.

So funny!

Most airlines prefer you to check in on line (or you pay extra with some). Monarch don't - so many passengers still check in and get their seats allocated at the airport. So checking the seating plan is not that accurate.

Which is what we said weeks ago   ;)



I know it's far from specific science and at best only a broad glimpse - but when I pretended I wanted to pre-book my seats (so I could see how many people already have), on a return flight that is 198 seats (33 rows x 6), just three have been pre-booked.

To check how many seats are available on a plane- if you put in 9 people and the booking process continues, then there could be plenty seats still available. If it declines 9, try 8. It may decline 8 also so try 7. So what I'm trying to say is you will be able to
tell only when there is 9 or less seats left on the plane.
