3,751 and above $200

to MCS, "exit row + food + bag"
849 miles or less is $35
850-1499 miles is $55
1500 miles or more is $110

to "F"
849 miles or less is $70 (+35)
850-1499 miles is $110 (+55)
1500 miles or more is $270 (+160)

If you are checking a bag, then the equation makes more sense.

I would like to see <850 $35, <2000 $60 >2000 $85, thought?

But aren't the Alaska prices you quoted for Airport only, as opposed to T-24 for MCS and T-6 for F? I think there's a measurable value there. If you want to say there should be a different (lower) price for airport buy-up, I agree. I won't even bring up the extra value of 55" seats vs. 38"...
