yeah, they really can. Flights are a sellers market, they run near empty flights often. Plus less people are using AirTags than you think.

Again, I think its a dumb rule. But don't think you are special and can just ignore it forever with no consequences.

I suspect I'm misreading your comment. You say "they run near empty flights often", which is not true based on current load factor data, at least in the US[1]; it's as high as ever.

But you also say "it's a sellers market" which would imply high demand where they can afford to lose a few passengers (which would be true based on basic economics). So I suspect this is what you intended to say, unless I'm really misunderstanding something.

> run near empty flights often

This is kind of amazing to hear. Roughly the last 10 flights I've been on have been completely full.
