I dont blame CO they Must do whats best for their continued existence and that means getting $$$ however they can (true they cant afford to lose the ElCheapos either). While I Must do whats best in order to stay out of their horrible no-leg room coach seats

The big question is how much is CO making by selling more buy-ups vs. how many paxs may move to other carriers because of the devalued EUA. If CO makes $x from buy ups and loses $y because paxs begin to see more value in other programs and switch to UA, DL, or AA; x better be more than y.

I know it is not that simple, but it has to be taken into consideration.
