I had one of those HNL-OAK flights (then on to SEA the next morning) in Nov. I booked it because it was the only flight that had 2 x U space, plus it was a whopping $500 cheaper than the HNL-SEA direct! This change allowed me to get on the direct HNL-SEA flight (same departure times as the original OAK flight) and stay in F as no U was available but they opened it up for me. So same flight time and a direct flight with no overnight in OAK. I am a happy camper. Well, other than losing the additional EQM’s for the connecting flights. But Mr. Fink, who does not share my enthusiasm for longer routings just for the EQM’s, is thrilled.
