On a bad day we are booked at 87%, in the middle of the week, in the middle of April, but on a weekend, more like 105%.

Watch out for all those HK's!

It took me two days, 4 flights and a motel room to get my family (4 little kids) from MCO to BOS one time.
Eggzactly! We are way past the days of 64% load factors. We seriously need to negotiate a couple of ps round trip, upgradeable, family tickets per year. Travel use to be one of the prime bennies of the job... definitely not so today.
