Also,



This sounds a lot like the 3-tiered fare model that F9 adopted a few years ago. This would be great if for an extra $50, you get E+, free bags, and no change fees— at least for GMs and Silvers.
It's the "de-kettle" fare. So anybody who didn't manage to get a credit card that gets them free bags and elite security can just buy a ticket that does that.
