I flew into RNO and out of OAK a couple of weekends ago to add to the flight memory, collect some Hard Rock Cafe pins, and photograph a couple of state capitols.
Took the red-eye back from OAK and was upgraded to first (Silver Elite). Both flights were just about full, and I heard a gate agent in OAK comment about the flights always being full.
Hopefully as/if oil prices continue down the routes will be reinstated.
