If you go back (WS / G4)
JUN 1298 / 2700
JUL 1162 / 2700
AUG 1826 / 2550
SEP 1706 / 2700
OCT 2234 / 2550
NOV 2114 / 2250
DEC 2114 / 1500
JAN 2114 / 1800
So it's only in the last 2 months that WS beat out G4. Looking at Feb's schedule for G4, they're operating 3 3 0 1 3 4 1 (flights/day sun-sat) for the 1st full week of Feb so that's 2250 seats again
Also, PR's numbers are somewhat inflated, as they assume an A340 full of people flew YVR-LAS, whereas in reality, at least half flew MNL-YVR-LAS
Lastly, I did mention that DL don't fly YVR-LAS, and they still don't non-stop, but OO (DL connection) apparently have one of their YVR-SLC trips continue to LAS, just to clarify that a bit.
Lastly, kudos to McCarran for publishing such interesting data
