You said it used to bed $2200 return? Are there destinations that are still roughly $2200 return in U/M class that is long haul? like europe or SA?
Well, I can help to answer one of your questions. Around 2004 or 2005, M class was priced at around $400 (RT) above the price of a Q class fare. IIRC, it was an extra $100 for each higher class of fare from Q to V to H to B to M. Back then, Q was selling for around $1400/1500. I never understood them completely though the "M" fare was not truly an "M" fare but an "upsell" of an H fare for about $200 extra.
