Flight had been J9C8D5I5Z4 before window opened with a bunch seats open in FC and FCM offer was $213.93. It's now at J4C3D1I0Z0 with FCM offer at $643.93 as below. I find it difficult to believe there were a significant number of Medallions with higher priority than us.
Maybe. Or DTW-SLC might be 360 heavy. That is a consultant-timed flight.

Not saying you can’t be wrong… just that as an ATL-based DM I see this happening all the time on my flights, even flying solo. Do you really think they released 5 seats, one at a time? Or is it more likely they released 5 seats and you’re unfortunately #6 & 7? TBH, neither seem particularly likely.
