Checking flight loads?
Just curious if there is a way to check and see what the loads on certain flights are between citys. Ive used passrider.com but obviously doesnt show loads. Thanks for the help.

Loads are not publicly released since the airlines don't want their competitors to see what, where, and how they're doing.
If you have non-rev privileges on an airline, there will be a web site or phone number.
If you are just jumpseating, some airlines have phone numbers or you can ask a gate or ticket agent about specific flights. You can also get some idea by going on the public web page, attempting to buy a ticket, and pulling up the seat availability....if there are 50 empty seats, you're golden. The downside is that the public site will not show listed non-revs (who probably have priority over you) and may not show overbooking. Six free seats + 11 non-revs + 2 other jumpseaters = you're not getting on.
Did you a particular airline in mind?

This site is $20 for a year subscription but will give you a good idea of the loads on all airlines except WN and AA.

There's a FB group called Loadshare with thousands of employees from almost every airline imaginable. If you ask for a load, it'll be answered pretty quickly.
