And, see, this is the problem. It's not that they don't have real F. It's that they charge the same for fake F as the competition does for real F. If the tickets were $400 this wouldn't be an issue.

The sad part is that, if they sold the tickets for $400, the product would probably get better, because people would buy them, and the cabin would be full of people who paid $400 instead of full of elites who got comp upgrades on $127 fares or applied GGUs to $250 fares. Maybe then they could use some of that extra revenue to buy pillows and pdbs.
