3/15 SAN-MCI at 10.25 a.m. At T-24 by the govt. clock, B14. I had reset the clock correctly and was wondering if SWA had done theirs. I guess if they hadn't, they'd have said I was an hour early. This flight takes connectors from at least TUS, SFO, and SMF.

3/15
HOU-MDW WN2487: A41
MDW-LGA WN3865: A39
Expecting 100% full on both legs. I checked in my brother too and somebody snuck in at A42 in the two seconds it took to run his.

I decided to try out EBCI on the return so I don't have to worry about the T-24 while I'm out. If nothing else, I really like having that luxury at my destination (I don't foresee ever using it out of HOU).

Checked in at T-24 and got A59, A60, B2, and B5. MCW-FLL Fri 3/19 at 4:55PM. There was only one empty seat on this flight.
Checked in at T-24 for return flight FLL-MDW on Sat 3/27 @6:15PM and got A55-58.
Interesting to note there were no A-listers or Business Select on this flight. No medical pre-boards,either. Plane appered to be about 75% full.

3/16/10, 12:30PM departure, PHX-MKE. Completely full flight, they asked for volunteers. I had A51 (checked in at T-24:00:00) and wife had B13 (problems with her PNR, had to call, story in another thread). Amazingly, 12DEF were all open so I snagged 12F for the legroom. Guy behind me took 12D, with his buddies saying "Aw, gee, you missed it by two positions", but absolutely no animosity. I told my new seat partner that my wife was soon to come and would be taking the middle, upon which exit row FA reminded me that it's open seating, no guarantee, someone else might want that one, but it ended up being hers. Everyone was very relaxed in line, all cross-checking each other's BP #s to make sure everyone was in the right place. Quite possibly the most laid-back & polite flight I've ever been on. Maybe it's a Wisconsin thing.

HOU-HRL Sunday 21 March; 12:30 flight:
Two passengers at ~ T - 19 within 1/2 a minute of each other: A34 and A35
Note that these were "expensive" WGA fares of $75+ each; I never saw the fare for this flight go down to the usual price on this route of $59+, let alone the $49+ or $39+ prices that are often available.

WN 0831 (MCI-DEN)
T-23
Five pax: B17, B22, B24, B28, B31. Done from my Palm Pre with a slow connection - took about 2 minutes to complete.
I only realized after the fact that I was checking in at 10:10 CST for a flight departing at 10:10 CDT. I'm not sure if the system would have allowed me to check in at 9:10 CST.

On Sunday, March 14, OKC-MCO connecting in HOU for my wife, my 5-year old daughter (my CP), and me on separate PNRs at t-24:00:00 with multiple window method:
WN 703 (OKC-HOU) - daughter A17, wife A19, me A21; we boarded as a group at A21. While boarding in OKC, I noted that a few people were feeding into the A16-A30 group (12 people were in the BS group) from the side of the podium vice the proper line. Two of the people funneling in from that way in front of my family had A25 and A27. I asked the OA boarding the flight if "we were not observing numerical order" and he replied "It is close enough." Of course, this did not sit well with me, but my wife made me it let it go since we were going on vacation.
WN 106 (HOU-MCO) - daughter A27, wife A28, me A29. No issues with incorrect boarding noted as A30 was the only person behind us.
Yes, all flights were completely full with many from OKC continuing with us on to MCO. And yes, we were headed to the Magic Kingdom, which was overrun with Canadians (most sporting their Vancouver 2010 gear). Return flight info is in the EB section as we would be at the Parks at T-24:00:00 and it is MCO after all.
