There’s a process for getting on this flight, as many know, having to do with QR codes and colored wristbands. Folks who weren’t prepared…and there were some…undoubtedly had another layer of stress as they searched frantically for their official e-mail from Hawaii.
Minus the morning BA flight, the only ‘big’ thing at E at that early hour is HA89. Wheels up/down was a flat 11 hours. Maddeningly, my seat back IFE at 19A was DOA for the whole flight. So was the one next to mine, 19B. I paid a few extra bucks for a ‘more comfort’ seat, guessing (correctly) that the chances of someone else upgrading to the seat next to mine were less than 50%. So while IFE was ano-go, I had plenty of personal space. That mattered on an 11-hour trip, way more than it would on my frequent trips to/from Charleston on JetBlue.
N374HA.
Funny you should ask, as yesterday, I had downloaded the T-100's for 2021 domestic..so I just happen to have that data through November
firstly BOS on it's own:
Jan - 33.33%
Feb - 35.72%
Mar - 43.11%
Apr - 62.88%
May - 72.26%
Jun - 79.20%
Jul - 93.03%
Aug - 88.91%
Sep - 62,43%
Oct - 67.01%
Nov - 58.69%
Year Avg - 68.71%
328 flights logged, 278 seats per flight = 91,184 seats and a conversion to 62,652 passengers
How does BOS stack up against everything else? - Actually, not good. on a pure Year Avg basis (not taking into account potential yields and stuff)- we are 15 out of 16, with only MCO averaging less.
Order goes: LAX, ONT, SAN, SFO, JFK, LAS, SMF, SEA, PDX, PHX, AUS, SJC, LGB, OAK, BOS, MCO
We are about 1% ahead of MCO and 1% behind OAK
