I flew up to Washington, DC yesterday on a midday flight on a Friday afternoon. I was on the phone with my mom waiting to board – waiting to hear that familiar “Zone 1 for Flight 199 is now boarding”. But instead, they simply called for all passengers for Flight 199 to proceed with boarding. The plane had so few passengers they boarded everyone at once. And to top that, we boarded so quickly we pushed back 20 minutes early. Everyone in the economy cabin was free to pick any seat they wanted – it was that empty. From a passenger perspective it was very nice. We could stretch out, relax and move around freely. But from an economy perspective, it was quite scary.
