Last Saturday I flew GRU-JFK and it was eerie to have a 767-300 with 46 passengers in the three classes. And, bearing in mind that intl passengers connecting through MIA were being routed through JFK as MIA flight was canceled.

But then all the airlines were leaving empty ! Never have I seen GRU airport that empty...

This route is usually overbooked and overloaded and bump-ups are "easy" to get... The Sunday evening before, one day prior to Sep.11 this flight(JFK-GRU) left JFK fully loaded in all the classes. I was travelling under a SWU and even so I had to endure coach... Apparently passengers were left at JFK...
