I'm in a funky situation, and I actually think it's worse than y'all who were booked on the original PAE-LAS. As I posted about on the original thread, there was a PAE-PDX leaving before PAE-LAS on 11FEB too:

I set an ExpertFlyer notification on it, and eventually a few seats opened up, so I switched from PAE-LAS to PAE-PDX. The flight is meant to be for employees and journalists, which is why they aren't selling tickets on the new date, but I can't get anybody in the call center to put me on PAE-PDX on 4MAR, nor can I get anybody to put me on PAE-LAS because on 4MAR because it's a destination change.
