What's interesting to me is that many infrequent travelers that I know in town here automatically default to WS on the premise that they are A) cheaper and B) better than AC. I've had a few employee that I've forced onto AC due to a more suitable schedule, much to their dismay, only to be later told that AC was surprisingly decent. Now, these folk look at all their options which they never would have done before. One has to wonder whether more people who never had any cause to look to AC because they were loyalists will now look there due to the lack of Econo seats.
