So here's the deal.. Going to MSY in June to visit some buddies.. 2 choices basically..

Outbound all UA mainline.. Good to go..

Return... US Codeshare or pay an extra $75 to go all UA with at least one leg on UX. The all UA mainline flights are even more than that unless I want to get in a midnight... Not so good when you have to be at work at 7 AM the next morning.

I'm curious.. Would anyone here actually pay that extra amount for at least 1 leg on UX and/or to avoid US?
