Yeah, but you could have the SEA flight jammed every day and the PDX flight with 75 people on it.
Before you split the lift 50/50 between SEA and PDX I'd want to see the O/D breakdown on the current SEA-NRT service. I'd bet more than 50% of boardings are originating at SEA.</font>
While I don't know the O/D breakdown, there are currently many passengers who are making connections from Alaska Airlines as well, including passengers from Portland. Some passengers also connect from Detroit, Minneapolis, and Memphis. Just as we have passengers flying form Portland and variety of Alaska Airline/Horizon Airline cities to connect, I would presume some passengers will fly to Portland to connect. There will be an increase in Alaska/Horizon traffic between these markets.
