I wasn't sure how this worked using a Copa instrument - maybe I should have bolded the 'I guess' portion of my post? - anyway, that clarifies, which is helpful.
The Copa info didn't seem to make the distinction between Regional vs Global clear...their website doesn't seem to provide a lot of detail. Hopefully that's improving.

Do we know if the Copa instruments will work on premium (lie-flat) United routes within a region, such as LAX-JFK?
