Must be something in the air - my flight this morning, EWR-DCA CO1205, had the "the FAA rule requires everyone to remain seated while the seatbelt is fastened" rule announced by the female pilot. She added that she would be leaving the sign on for the duration of the flight, which had about 40 minutes of cruise time from top-of-climb in relatively smooth air.
Nevertheless, about 4 pax on my flight ignored her to use the lav during cruise.
I think COInsider is still interested in these reports, but he will probably get the info he needs from our posts here today.
