Good thing we have free wifi...
Is it free anywhere besides the E food court?

Yes, but they DON'T pay for the fuel then...the largest single cost per flight now.
I'm not sure about whether or not cancellation due to light load is kosher...but the cancellation of "too many" flights isn't really the issue. It is when you cancel/delay the same flight over and over that the particular flight winds up on the DOT Sh*t List.Problem is, if any 121 carrier cancels too many flights the FAA looks into it, and I don't think that a flight can be canceled due to load, at least in the FAAs eyes. That's what I was told by a fed on the jumpseat once.
$25mil over the failure to pay for Delta-intiated cancels...so, essentially, yes.Issn't Skywest in court with Delta over about 50 million, about this very thing?
A gate agent isn't the best source of intel on topics like this. If you want to know when the widget on the wall will be changed yes, ops facts no. This will be a ops/PR nightmare for any carrier to simply cancel a R/T ONLY because the load is light. If you have a mechanical and need another a/c to cover it then yes, the sector managers know which flts make operational sense to cxl. Just to say "15 or less make em wait" will not work. What do you tell the pax "you pulled the short straw tonight" see ya in about 3 hours.
