Frankly I don't fly a crazy amount every year so splurging on the longer domestic flights (and this is one of them) is worth it to me
This is exactly why I pulled the trigger @ $310. For six hour block time (not to mention any possible delays making the fight seem interminable long), club access in EWR (granted not the best, but better than nothing) and since it booked into Z, it gives me more flexibility for SDC. And while I could have risked saving money and applying an RPU, I'd rather confirm it a week in advance and not be sweating it out at the gate, or doing a day of departure buy up which wouldn't net me the extra PQM's or better fare class for SDC.
