But this one is what gets me: "Average passenger fare $178.94" ... sigh ... not only at least 28 of my last 32 paid segments been ~100% full, but I've paid significantly more on average (and more this year by a large margin (even if not seen in the prior-year's average pax fare)).
Sometimes I get on these random flights that are somewhere around 40% full. I feel like I've hit the jackpot on those flights. Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays particularly in the late afternoon or evening seem to be the best for those. I think those really drag down the averages.
