Tech Alley and Silicon Valley drive a lot of traffic over the BOS-SFO route. I know 4-5 people that are at least one RT and sometimes 2x weekly. They are craving the B6 Mint product.

I hope this introduction demonstrates the viability of 'premium service' from Boston to the West Coast for the other carriers operating the route as well. AA's F on 737s and UA's F on the 757/737s leave much to be desired. I miss UA's old three class 767s here in Boston; but, of course, that's just nostalgia at this point.
Still, the option is nice to have as 5 and half hours in a B6 A320 is a bit much for me.

I will be very happy when LAX-BOS starts. I will fly AA/DL economy eastbound, but I will be even happier to snap up those introductory MINT fares.
At the moment if I can't get F BOS-LAX on DL/AA at a reasonable price, I've been connecting through JFK and buying MINT. I just don't do westbound transcons in the back. If I can avoid that extra leg at the end of a long week, I am all for it.
