The route was active in 5 of the months on record, which is not yet enough to say much about seasonality.

Your odds as a retiree

Category VI is the last group called at roll call. On this route, 96 percent of the 79 reported flights still had room by the time Cat VI was called. Those are good odds by any standard.

The lowest category that made each reported flight, since February 2026:

Category III3 flights
Category VI76 flights

Seats are the other half of the picture. On the 79 flights that reported both numbers, the terminal released an average of 212 seats and 1 were taken, so a typical flight on this route left with about 211 Space-A seats empty. That is a lot of room, and it is why the Category VI number above is as good as it is.
