Totally agree. Paying for F would stink, in a significant way.

Then again, I haven't been EUA'ed since July (BF or Y since). Being a Plat again, this shouldn't be an issue. If I were to fall to Silver/Gold next year, there are times I'm sure I'd prefer to sit in F (as would others?).

Can you upgrade a K-fare to F, using miles?

Hey, just tossing this out there. The patterns seem to lean towards Plats getting all the joy, Golds getting some joy, and Silvers just not paying a lot of GM fees.
