If it's a capacity issue, a certain gargantuan airline could "follow the science" and open up the middle seat immediately.

Taxpayers who've been floating the bill to keep the lights on might appreciate it.

It's not. We are still below caps every day. Average LF is around 50% with aircraft still in storage.

Does that 50% count the international widebody flying? If you're taking domestic, Caribbean, and Mexican, I'm thinking that number is much higher

Looking like a pretty good bet. 1,644,xxx yesterday. The only thing that’s going to prevent us from hitting that is a lack of qualified crews.

I flew 3 legs yesterday. A total of 5 seats not filled and my commute home every seat was filled. One flight even had lap children and a jump seater to boot...standing room only by June...

i think you are right. It’s looking like capacity, rather than demand, will be the bottleneck for summer. 2m may still happen, but DAL probably won’t get as much of that travel because optics.
