I think this highlights where Parker and his team has consistently failed. You either have a plan where your FFP generates revenue from loyalty and this must make the premium cabins and coach+ (MCE) less premium because you know you will be giving a portion of it away to upgrades or you decide to fully monetize the premium cabins and MCE by investing in said product and the FFP is weekend.

They instead downgraded a product they were trying to monetize. Just one of many failures.
