EUG-LAX nonstop changed from midafternoon to 0745, and of course all the connections go via SEA ... as much as I hate the I-5/205 slog EUG-PDX, I’ll probably switch to PDX-BUR and the inbound to SEA-PDX

SFO-MCO-SFO non-stop fights are cancelled in May. I called and my only option is SFO-SAN-MCO (not bad) but the return MCO-SEA-SFO is terrible. It leaves 9.5 hours earlier so I lose a day or if I want to go the next day it is a full day traveling. I asked to move my reservation to October (can't go to Florida after May in my book-- too hot!) and they said no. You would think with a return flight issue of 9+ hours they would be more accomodating!

Apologies if this was stated somewhere up thread and I missed it, but do we expect the May schedule is set as of now? I earned 75k status in 2019 primarily thru business travel, but life circumstances and a lack of business travel during the pandemic have resulted in me not flying for over a year. Don't think I'll fly for work until summer at the earliest, but would like to at least have Gold status in 2022 and I have one weekend in mid-May free of responsibility. Considering a SAN-SEA-JFK-SEA-SLC-SEA-FLL-SEA-HNL-PDX-SAN that gets me almost 29k EQM for ~$1,300. But I'd like to be a little more confident that schedule won't change between now and mid-May.
Also, am I insane?

Insane? Not even close when judged by FT standards...

SEA-CVG kickoff on May 20th is hanging in there! I've been holding my breath checking the itin every Sunday morning. Anybody else here on the first flight out? (I'm making a real trip out of it, not just a quick turnaround, but I'd be up for a Bloody Mary/Mimosa lounge meet-up beforehand.)
