I know that you can see the seat assignments on United Connection at www.ual.com.

I think that Travelocity or Biztravel also have seat maps.

Thanks I know where I can find seat maps but when a travel agent is booking they can see something like this

CO182 Ewr-Dus J D H K Y V Q (booking-classes)
........................5 5 0 3 3 1 2 0 (number of seats available only up to 7 or 9)
The START-system or the AMADEUS-system do that so I wonder if there is such a site on the internet

this could be completely wrong, but I was told once upon a time that the CRSs available to the end-user (e.g. ITN with expert mode on) will show the class and a rough-estimate-number corresponding roughly to the percentage of seats left in that class to be sold (e.g. Q9 - 90-100% of Q seats are available, D2 - 20-30% of D seats of avail.)

Usually when pressed the airline agent will tell you..

http://www.itn.com has this feature of showing % of seats available in each class.

Easysabre has a convoluted text-based interface but it shows you exactly the same data that travel agents see - including each booking class

Internet Travel Network.

www.itn.com shows you whats left in each booking class. EasySabre shows what booking classes are left, but doesn't tell you how many.

It only shows up when you are selected the flight for your itinerary. If that doesn't work, then you should try United's. It's based on the same engine.

I might need remedial help. I cannot find a % available on ITN.

And yes, EasySabre will give you theoretical fare codes offered on a flight, but I have seen time after time where that does not equate to those fares being available, just offered (and perhaps unavailable).
