It still seems of value when there is no other way to get a 2nd ticket for hundreds of dollars off the "retail" price.
Sure you'd like to still get a 2nd FC ticket for $110, but really,it's suddenly not worth it at all?
I'm not going to get a 2nd ticket. We just won't go, or we'll go if I can get U space when booking. Or, we'll fly another airline with a better price.
For the most part, the only flights I'm not confirmed in a premium cabin in at the time of booking are flights that are 1000 miles or less from home.
It looks likely that only one of us will have AS status in 2014. And, most of that, at the rate things are going, will be from paid premium international travel on another carrier. And if anything further happens, who knows where I'll decide to bank those miles.
