Best tool for seat maps

[aweingar]

Hello,
What are the best tools for detailed seat maps?
My preferred platform has always been seatguru, although my understanding is that it is no longer being maintained.
Aerolopa seat maps don't appear to match the seat map I get from Qantas for my flight.
Experflyer does appear to match the Qantas map, but I miss the seat recommendations I used to get in seatguru.
Opinions? Are there any others?

I’ll be interested to hear what faults you find with aeroLopa with regard to Qantas.

Aerolopa definitely over seatguru these days. What aircraft are you struggling with?

Aerolopa.

I was looking at QF81 SYD->SIN in premium economy.
The Qantas map shows row 21 as the first row, just behind the lavatories.
They don't specify which variation of the A330 they are using, but looking at the Aerolopa maps, none of the A330 varieties seem to have premium economy at all.

The issue with Flight Seats is that using the free tier I can only search a couple of months ahead. My flight is next year.

What dates are you looking at?

If you are looking at premium economy on an A330 then that would be one of the Finnair wet leased aircraft. Premium economy on those aircraft are rows 21, 22 and 23.

But then how would they appear on Aerolopa? Do I need to search for Finnair rather than Qantas?

Experflyer shows the correct mapping for the leased aircraft.

No.

Go to the Qantas tab on Aerolopa and scroll right down to the bottom. It is the last aircraft listed on the Qantas page and is under a heading "Wet Leased".

No.

Ah. Good spotting thanks. I didn't scroll down all the way to the bottom.
Now that this is resolved, I'm still missing those recommendations I used to get on seat guru, such as no window or proximity to the lavatories. Aerolopa gives me the map, but there are no comments against individual seats. Qantas give me the same map already, although only for the relevant class rather than the whole plane.
