Any use for Domestic flights?

[kevrosmith]

What airlines are covered by Expert Flyer for domestic flights in Australia? Is it only QF? Or does it cover DJ as well?

And while I understand how the fare buckets work and how the numbers show up to a certain quantity available for sale, I'm hoping that this may also tell me how full a flight is? Is it possible to glean that from the info that Expert Flyer presents?

I've gotta get to Karratha (KTA) from east coast, either OOL or BNE by next Wednesday evening (23rd Aug). There's a a few options on DJ leaving OOL or BNE Tuesday night or Wednesday via SYD/MEL to PER, and same on QF out of BNE, or there's a QF direct BNE-KTA on the Wednesday. I'd like to know how "full" the planes are going to be on the sectors across the red centre to see 1. on DJ, the chance of getting toward the front using my DJ Gold Status if PE is not too full, or 2. chance of getting a relatively empty QF flight (meaning an opportunity to spread out/lie down on a 6 hour flight) considering I've only got Bronze status there.

Would Expert Flyer help me to get this type of info?

Is there any other web sites? (Other posts mention seatcounter.com but that seems to be down atm)

For access to loadings without a paid subscription, see the tip in post 1 of this thread:

Other than that, expertflyer returns QF seatmap for those with status. It does not return seatmaps for JQ or DJ.

Thanks for the link to the tip serfty. Very handy.

Looks like I'll have to wait till I can get some status on QF before making good use of Expert Flyer.
