They have to continue flying or they lose their flight slots under the "use it or lose it" system. The value of these slots exceeds that of flying an empty plane.

There is still air cargo being flow under the main deck. The less people the more cargo.

Sound fun but I rather be on Singapore, Thai , China , or any other airlines alone. Food is perfect , wine is o.k.and service staffs very very very kind.

After the earthquake hit Kumamoto there were heaps of flights flying in and out of Fukuoka with only about a dozen passengers

If they will allow a single passenger on a flight to go from coach to an empty first class seat, so much for the airlines excuse that on a normal flight, if a coach passenger were to ask to sit in business/first class, it's not possible.

@Tey, just purchase a first class seat and then you do not have to beg to get one.
