I'm pretty sure you have a better chance winning the lottery.

My luck:

Last two passengers stumble onto the plane.

Flight attendant close the door.

They sit down in the empty seats next to me all covered in sweat and smelling not so fresh. "We had to run to make it."

Oh joy....

Nah, this has happened to me plenty of times, I have won the (one of the major ones anyways) lottery 0 times.

You must just be unlucky lol

Heavily depends on the route and time of the day. Some flights are almost always completely full, some others are often half capacity.

I've had it happen at least a dozen times! Should I buy a lottery ticket, or have I wasted all of my luck?
