OTOH, there were 14 seats open on the morning of my ATL-SLC run two weeks ago and I didn't clear until I got to the gate. Sweated that one, for sure. Of course that was hub-to-hub so guess they were holding back for FCM.
This timing is normal. DL says five days, but it's really six days, so that DM and PM first sweep happens at 5 pm ATL time on Wednesday for a flight the following Tuesday.
