Does anyone know about the SEA-NRT flights and how often they are affected as well as how many seats typically go empty?
Keep an eye on travelnet. You can get results every day and see that info yourself. No one can tell you any more than that. Is NRT your only destination? Have you looked at HND options?
I'm transiting to SIN. I just didn't know if there was a way to know how many seats they might take. The flight is fairly wide open (9 days out) but I just wanted an idea of when to be worried. I was hoping there might be a SEA agent who would know.
I doubt an agent would know much until they got the cargo info that day. I'm not sure if any historical records would apply day to day. 9 days is a long time. Loads can fill in a few. How wide open is it? Asia is very unpredictable. Would you consider going backwards to MSP or DTW if necessary? You can also opt for LAX. Good luck---keep us posted.
The outbound this time of year is moderate. The inbound however is PO'ed (Payload Opt) due to Holiday toys and electronics coming from Asia.Talked to my man Sal D in the tower in SEA.Quote:

Also, I'm actually flying from somewhere else, I'm jsut hopefully seeing a friend in SEA before I leave. I'm open to any which way to get where I'm going. :)
Spoken like a true non-rev traveler. :cool:Quote:

3 continents? On 80 beans? Now that's my kind of non rever. I don't like to bust out the wallet either especially when I have travel privileges. Why spend money on tickets when you can fly standby and use the money on vacation right?Quote:
