    If it doesn't fill up, they might cancel the flight. I have had more flights canceled on me the last 12 months than ever before.

    I hope not, but having status on united hopefully will help.. or not.. time will tell.

     

  2. i did look at my flights again, and one correction is that I was talking mostly about the premium seats.. all empty.. scrolled to the back and less available.. but that still makes the plane around 60% currently, maybe it fills out before my flight.  Going to buy some airline stocks :)

    My last few flights (LGA-BNA-BNA, HHH-CLT-LGA) have been packed (a couple empty seats). Upgrades are still easier to come by though with the lack of business travelers.

    looking forward to that, united and AA  kept my status from 2019 so that's pretty cool.

    Gonna laugh when you make some shocked post about airports not being deserted like the man on TV said they would be. LOL you’ll figure it out soon. 

    I'm not worried about it, I will be happy to see folks getting out.. it is summer after all.

    I flew to Florida and back and both flights were packed, we all wore masks but there was only a couple open seats.

    urgh.. I hope not.  but no biggie, it's 3 of us so we will fill out a row anyway.. I don't care about COVID, just like the space to stretch.

    None of you expected VT and MI to drop mandates today. Give me a break. Stop pretending this is all following the science.

    lol, I'm not following the state by state mandates like you.. but I'm not surprised.  vaccinations  have turned this around like science predicted.

    I have flown Southwest to NH, MD, and FL at least 10 round trip flights since November and they have been packed every time. Not sure what a flight to Orlando from a month away means. There are like 20 flights a day from major airports to Orlando. Those planes will be full when they take off, or the flights get canceled and everyone stuffed on the next flight.

     

    would be from newark..  I was surprised by the amount of empty seats.. and yes they could cancel other flights but that does not mean "flight are packed " because everyone is flying, it's because there are less seats than before.

  8. i mean did folks not expect mandates to go away once cases dropped? remember, there is still the theory that allot of people got the virus that don't know about it.. add that to the vax population I would not be surprised if we are close to herd immunity..

    Planes have been packed for months. No social distancing on any flight I have been on. That’s when I realized the “science guidance” from the politicians was all a bunch of BS. 

    You must be flying in a Cessna.. keep trying.

     

    just checked for seats to my flight to Orlando and the plane is half empty in June.

    Once the insiders make their money, they will want to pull up the ladder and prevent anyone else from doing the same thing. So predictable.

    yeap, in and out..

    At this point masks are a social commentary on society.  We've gone well past any scientific merit. 

    Youth lacrosse outdoor mask count last night.  Coaches 0.  Kids 25% Parents 25% .

    Parents driving around town with masks on alone in their cars: shockingly high.

    I find the whole thing fascinating. 

    yeah, I still see folks walking their dogs with masks in their hands.. not so many on.. but I never brought a mask on a walk unless I was going to boston..
