Hopefully, all remaining inventory in the future will be used toward GUs vs. the current situation.
What does this mean? Why do you think/hope that DL will increase upgrade inventory as it eliminates the requirement of paying a (much) higher fare to be upgrade eligible?
If DL has a better product, optimizing revenue could easily mean flying aircraft with more business class seats than DL's competitors use, especially given that DL doesn't do IFC.
