The idea that "money is their driver" any more than it is with any other airline or any more than it was with UA or CO in the past is, quite frankly, laughable. Don't confuse complete disorganization as a result of a large merger with a deliberate ploy.

It will likely be some time before we really get to see what the strategy of this airline is and I can assure you it won't vary much from their largest US-based competitors. That's the nature of the US airline industry.

I'm sure your suggestion would have some effect - so if it makes you feel better then you should definitely do that.
