Default Loads to SBP?

I'm looking to jumpseat on Skywest next Friday the 17th from SFO to SBP. Anyone know what the loads are like (either generally or specifically)? Can the 120 haul a full boat down there with our new 'heavier' bags?

Thanks!

Even those of us who work @ Skywest don't have direct access to UAL loads. Your best bet is to check with a UAL gate or ticket agent on your next trip. They'll be able to look them up.

Checking with a gate agent will be the best way to go. We can't see the loads until two days out from our website. I use the flyzed.com website for commuting to check out all airlines loads. You can't see the actual numbers but it does give you a green smiley face if its good, a yellow face if its questionable, or a red sad face if it is full. I just checked it out and it looks like the 1st and last flight of the day on Friday shows green and all the flight in between are red. Typically on that flight we can get 27 to 28 people on the EMB but depends on how many bags are on and how much fuel we need to carry. The 7:44am or the 8:05pm flights look like you will have the best chances to get on! Hope that helps you out.

How do you get access to that website? Or who is allowed to?

Our airline has a login/password I use, that I got from our travel center. I would imagine other airlines would have the same kind of deal?

UAL doesn't grant web access to most regional employees...most of us have to call the non-rev number: 800 825-5478
