That's precisely the problem IMO. JetBlue is able to advertise "this is a Mint route" and people will pay extra because they know that's the product they are getting. AA can't or won't do that. Most people would not pay a premium to fly PHL-SFO on the 330 knowing a schedule change could swap it for a 321.
