Does There Currently Seem To Be Less Passengers?
Obvious questions for an expected answer.
Are there (noticeable) less vehicles on your highways and roads?
I would rather see personal observations rather than media reports.

You mean fewer vehicles, right? Or did you mean smaller (less) vehicles?
I haven't looked on the road, but know more people who choose to drive
(even with gas prices being high) than fight with the airlines and TSA
to get to their destinations.

The expected answer is "yes" to both questions.
One may be in the middle of a hurricane & not realize it immediately.

I'm moving too often to notice traffic patterns, but all of my flights are
still full. In fact, I just got the last seat for a flight tomorrow.

I shalt not waste ye time again with boringness.
May I redeem myself with this pretty clever aviation website.
It has such a meager list of bankrupt airplane businesses
The spendthrifts shold not have been handing out pretzels &
refreshing beverages--shame
Frontier last time i looked was spectacular 30 cents a share, AIR
TRAN & USA in the two dollar a share neighborhood
Meanwhile, I've come up with the panacea solution for
rehabilitating the oil exporters p.r. image;
To re-gain some respect and goodwill, why not, say, give the oil
suckers a break: 1,400 S & H green stamps with every barrel sold, or
14 pounds of sugar per barrel, side benefit is expediting diabetes
But of course ther are no fewer vehicles on the roads
And certainly the airplanes are full while they go bust again
