some people paying out of their own pocket also make the same value calculation and decide it is worth the extra cost.
Right on. I wouldn't consider buying a Latitude fare unless there was I space available. It is the first thing I check, and I will manipulate my travel times (to a certain extent) around the I availability. As you can tell, I pay for my own tickets!
