Since SWA is going to book (upto) full flights it would be appreciated if when selecting flight or a few days before check-in show percentage of flight seats booked so folks can change to different flight that's less full.
Cheers

Southwest has said it would notify passengers on "almost full" flights of that fact, and allow flyers to switch to less full flights -- at no cost.
edit add: The risk in the situation is that the airline notifies people that a flight is almost full. Then a bunch of people move from that flight to other flights. Then it turns out those flight are almost full -- while the original flight goes out with plenty of seats available.
What % of people will want to move from a flight that the airline announces is almost full?
I guess we'll find out.

waiting to see if that happens. I see that as that intense situation that I don't think anybody wants to be in. When all window and aisle seats are taken, that flyer that has to ask a row" Is that middle seat taken has got to have internal anxiety. Not to mention, the two people who have to respond. Since I'm A list, I will always be on first, and glad that won't be me asking, but I'm sure, (since I am normally in the coveted first 10 rows, will be asked. It's not what I want, but it's coming

Delta, the only airline of the big three still blocking middle seats for social distancing, will continue to do so until March 30, 2021, the airline announced Wednesday.

The empty middle seat policy should be put back in place for the following reasons:
1) Stand by customers can cause a plane to fill up quickly
2) Customers switching flights after they are notified about plane capacity will only fill
up another flight.
While I have in the past enjoyed the convenience of Southwest's flights to Long Island, I will no longer be booking with Southwest until the pandemic ends. As a result, I have switched to Delta, where the middle seat is left empty until March, 2021.
