How often do airlines add new flights?
There is only one non-stop flight available for Baltimore to Las Vegas during the week I am looking for. If I do not book it now, and the flight fills up, do airlines typically add new flights? Do you know how often?

i believe they add new flight just after midnight from ppl who have canceled or stuff like that and also check on weekends and early in the mornings when there arent so many ppl lookin for fights late nite flights are also cheaper b/c there are less ppl flying then

Very rare. Airlines bid for 'slots' as busy airports can only take so many flights per day. So they have to arrange in advance with the aviation authorities to have extra flights. Especially from busy Baltimore where the flight departure times are tight. What MAY happen more commonly is that if they get a lot of bookings they upgrade the SIZE of the aircraft. So if the plane was a 737 holding 120 passengers they may change it to a 767 holding 220. Book early and get to the airport early.
