THIS!

I will make the argument that you get more revenue long term by treating the highest level elites well as we fly the most. That said, if the data shows that offering TODs maximizes revenue, then why not offer to elites first?

Occasionally I do get an offer but the amount is really high. If that's what others are getting offered, then I can live with that. There seems to be differing info on this point.

Oh yeah, I forgot. I don't feel like things have gotten any better on the CPUs. I am out of SFO, and I am almost exclusively flying hub to hub. I'm around 33%.
