Don't the Kettles on S and T who pay ½ the W fare, get offered buy ups these days for a few $100?
Then few or zero seats are left for anyone using a SWU/GPU
Who pays $2900 or whatever for a W from here these days?
1K is a joke as of this year.
I am finding that TPAC/TATL is about $1,200 in W which isn't different from how it was with UA and there isn't much evidence here of TODs on intl itineraries so I'm curious how widespread this practice is on intl. Still unsure. To me, the even bigger problem, is all the crap they call "glitches" that prevents people from even having a chance to upgrade.
