Agreed that its of limited value when wait listed, but if it increases the likelihood of seats being available at time of booking for 1k and perhaps platinum, I'm all for it.
While they stated a LOOONG time ago that they were working on bringing back ZN as a differential tier to Z, I wonder about the sincerity. GPUs bring in no revenue (beyond the W minimum / lottery) where as with $+copay available to anyone, they can take in $600 and wipe 30,000 miles off the books on an already sold lower fare transpac...
Either way, call me greedy, but anything which increases my GPU odds, I'll take.
