Rarely are there any seats lately, due in large part to reduced capacity.
Regarding this, if you use DTS I believe there is a glitch with clicking on a flight that shows available, says "selection not available" and then disappears. I say that because a couple of times I checked GDS and it still showed available in that particular fare bucket. Called SATO and they were able to find the flight and book it. Now when I encounter this issue, I copy down flight details and then click "request CTO assistance" and paste the flights I want booked in the notes. Not sure why it shows as unavailable even though it is but you may want to check before ruling a flight option out.
