You know, if anyone at FT is aware of how this has played out on other carriers, they really should have phrased it as "The seating option will offer the equivalent of a $20 surcharge to all passengers not willing to accept the withdrawal of previously-included features such as not boarding last, a standard carry-on allowance, seating anywhere but the back of the flight, and the ability to change their tickets, even for a fee."
