  • Total—-32

Orlando

  • Friday—-12
  • Saturday—–13

The Embraer 190 has 100 seats (25 rows of 4) for a grand total of  600 seats.   Right now 72 seats (32 + 40) equates to an 88% load.  Now keep in mind that of the 72 seats, I bet you at least half are sold but passengers have not checked in yet to reserve their ticket.   In other words, the 88% will most likely be more like 95%.
