Now given that you have flown paid full-fare F on TG (this must have cost thousands of $), how would you feel if the rest of the F cabin had been filled with people chirping about how they had gotten their F tix basically for free (as opposed to having the F cabin partially empty)? Wouldn't you feel like you got ripped off?</font>
Not at all! Good for them if this was the case. If there is someone smarter than me in outsmarting the airlines then good for them! After all, I am getting my food, my booze and my decent sleep, so why would I feel like I got ripped off? After all, I could have chosen to fly Qantas in coach for just about the same money...
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">So accomodate those who pay $0? I'm not sure what you're saying here.</font>
If someone wants to fly F and even tries to book in this class then let them have it. An averge Joe Blow wouldn't even attempt to book in F, so there is no real risk of getting pax who are occasional tourists and thus disloyal to an airline. A person trying to book in F indicates that s/he has the capacity to fly in the searced fare class.
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">I did? Sorry about that. I assure you it was not intentional - I honestly might have missed it (read it, procrastinated at replying, then it slipped through the cracks).</font>
Ok, I'll take your word for it (out of the respect of all that you have done for FT) but it was pretty hard to miss as it had "Spider from FT" in the subject...
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">However, when the tone you use is meant to somehow blame me or say that I am the cause of you leaving the AA forum, then your "FWIW" is worth nothing.</font>
I am totally confused. To me, FWIW, is just a phrase. I do not know what you make out of it. I have no second thoughts when I use this phrase.
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">Why should I give a hoot if you are going to be rude like this? I am honestly sorry that I did not reply to your e-mail, but I am not sorry if you wish to depart AA in such a non-friendly manner.</font>
I am rude? How about giving me some slack for cultural differences? Americanese is not my native tongue... I departed AA after You and Plato90S jumped on me like a ton of bricks. At least he had the decency to reply, even though the reply was rather unpleasant and offensive.

For sure!
I sure hope so since I am taking your word about not receiving my e-mail or forgetting about it.
BTW, diesel SUV's seem to be of mutual interest to us, right?
