Just because it's full/"popular" doesn't mean it's profitable. Especially if F was going for under $400.

Yep, same as the transcons out of CLT. Annyoing to have a 4-5 hour flight without any power, especially in F. Fortunately, I can now fly UA from my home airport and not have to deal with poor planes all the time.
