Empty flights

Hi FT,

I need an aisle seat when I fly as I go to the toilet quite a lot (not a medical thing) - record was PER - BNE nine times. However, due to the Qantas fare class to seat algorithm, I've had pretty much no luck getting an aisle seat, even when I request one through 'Manage My Booking'. I have no status and am not a Qantas Club member.

I can't usually change my seat through online check-in because the flights I take are usually full - only middle seats available.

I'm going to start flying PER - MEL frequently sometime this year and would like to know what days of the week and what times of day are the quietest, historically, on this route, so I can maximise my chances of getting an emptier flight and therefore a prized aisle seat!

I hope someone can help.
