I'm not in a position of authority, but unlike using price increases and shared reservation systems to signal price increases it's harder to imagine liability for announcing a revised program in advance so that flyers can plan accordingly.

Wouldn't we all be pretty outraged if United announced this change on Dec 31, 2013?
