Cause if they don't I, and a lot of people like me, won't be going anywhere that's longer than 3-4 hours. Or we'll have to take several days off work after each flight to recover from the horrors of long-haul cattle class. Both of which will be much more expensive to the company than the few shekels of difference between C and Y, big company discounts taken into account.
