My main issue, honestly, is the slippery way this has been presented to frequent flyers. Saying Saver fares are "now" available is disingenuous to those of us who have seen the same cheap fares (under a different name) on the webpage for years
Yup. For the most part, the “at a lower price” (implying “than before”) is simply not true. Some may call it marketing speak, I call it lying. (and yes, the pricing isn’t unexpected, having seen the BE rollout by the Big Three)
