UA1k4EVER, since your first post you seem to have indicated that you have some insider information. First, what the upgrade instruments would be called in the merged airline and now that UDUs are to be renamed URU's. Care to elaborate on your source(s)?

And now let's assume for a moment that you are correct in your you crystal balling above. if UACO rename UDUs as URUs (presumably for the reason of expanding their range beyond the Domestic region), then surely UACO will have solved what you perceive as their major problem above of different territories being covered by the 2 instruments.

Please let us in on your secrets
