    Is it? Are you 100% sure of that? Actually, it's not, and it wont.

    A generic 'it's quite busy', or 'there are 100 odd seats left' is quite easy to solicit, I do it all the time.

    Stop scaring the helpful lass!

    If you're booking a scheduled flight the agent or booking website will tell you the type of plane they plan to use that day, and it's quite easy using wikipedia or one of the websites above to find out how many seats it's got in the different classes. For low-cost airlines it's a case of knowing which type they use (apart from easyjet they mostly have a uniform fleet) and looking up the maximum capacity. From memory, all Ryanair planes have 189 seats; easyJet's A319s have 156 and their B737-700s have 148 ish.
