All 3 of my WN flights on Friday were empty. One only had 30 people on it. LAX was a ghost town when I changed planes there. Granted I flew on Friday, but last year and the year before my flights were stuffed to the gills. My flights Monday were totally packed.
The airports had a strange feel to them this year. Much quieter and more subdued than normal. But the topic was definitely the scanners. Heard a bunch of people talking about them in PDX, SJC and LAX. Even two weeks ago at MDW they were a hot topic.
