UA isn't trying to poach the B6 customers that are on low yield tickets. and as stated earlier, MCO is a very low yield market. nobody will pay a premium for a two hour flight. the premium market is NY-SFO/LAX and international. not tourist destinations where your pax are looking for the cheapest fares and are upgraders.
