Or is like the 1900 where 1a is the jump? Also, can I call to get listed? Or just at the gate like normal? Thanks for all the info!

Any idea how this route has been recently with pax loads and completion percentage? On time, I don't really care. Just want to get there haha.
I don't fly for a UA Carrier so I can't look up the loads or performance my self. Gonna check flight aware in a bit.

I have not done it in a couple years so I have no idea how it has been recently. I used to call to list and they would give me an idea of the loads. 1 800-554-5111 of 5112. I have both numbers in my phone and can't remember which is correct. Have you considered Envoy to GRI?
