So much for a recession...flew YOW-YYC-YEG-YZF-YEG-YOW this week and also YOW-YYZ-YEG-YYZ-YOW and YOW-YYZ-IND-YYZ-YOW in the past two weeks and the only plane with even a single empty seat was YYZ-IND both ways (lots empty on that route).

The only thing harder to get on short notice than seats was hotels...almost every hotel in both Edmonton and Toronto sold out last few times I've tried on short notice.
