An A320 captain was telling me they were weight restricted coming out of SLC last week ago to ATL - first they were just going to block some seats, but it turned into dozens, so the company just chose to fuel stop in Oklahoma City.

A few weeks ago we couldn't take a full load out of SLC going to DTW - climb limited on the 737-900ER. Left with some open seats, if I remember it was the mid-80s for temps.
