Recent research by Luxury Link indicates that nearly 20% of airline seats go unfilled, particularly on shorter flights, which are more likely to have extra space. Their analysis, based on 3,000 popular U.S. routes, shows that most empty seats occur on routes under 1,000 miles, while some long-haul flights, like Chicago to West Palm Beach, also exhibit significant vacancy. Airlines such as Delta, United, and American report the fewest empty seats compared to low-cost carriers like Avelo and Breeze, which have higher vacancy rates.
