Indeed. I noted that the rear third of some UA flight looked almost empty a few days before the flight, and when i looked at checkin, it was completely full. Thats a different issue, but i did wonder what the best places would be to look for what seemingly must be good offers. E.g.: Should i be able to see them on united.com simply by looking for flights within the next 24 hours or so ?
