I am glad they are monetizing the cabin and improving it. I wish they would completely rule out any complementary upgrades and give more pitch in F. The new F in the 739 and 753 are tight. A cabin obviously designed as upgrade class.
Improving it???? Since the advent of FCM, I have seen smaller FC cabins with tighter pitch and not much in the lines of service improvements. Perhaps you have F confused with C+.(which still has a long way to go to be considered a real upgrade). Delta and the other leading domestics seem to make F and C+ better by making C- worse.
