Hi Mike, if this is the date (10 Sept) then using "Is my flight full", I believe will give a different picture and better indication.

That day has 2 flights from Man direct and very few seats have been reserved in economy or upper class, although on both PE is a lot busier (although at least 8 available on the busiest). On both flights most fare buckets are showing at least 9 seats available . This would indicate this is not a busy day at the moment. So much so, that I could almost see a future consolidation and reduction to 1 flight if sales do not pick-up :.

Agh so by looking online at Virgin Atlantic the "view seats" is not a true reflection of what seats are actually available but a way for the airline to make you think they are so you book them.
