That's just plain wrong, IMHO. If Tango has less "service" than AC then award redemption levels should be less.

UA didn't offer any discounts through points or revenue when connecting from the mainline airline to Shuttle. Stand alone Shuttle R/Ts cost the same points (and in most cases the same revenue fares) as mainline. All that for inferior servce and often late flights.
What's interesting is that AC seems to be getting into a Shuttle type airline when most of the other airlines in North America are looking to get (or have already gotten) out.
