As HON, I buy exclusively D fare whenever it is possible (and A is not possible).
And that is currently only thing why I do need sometimes TA.

Of course, by new system it will not be any more the case.
But 2020 continue as before: all time D / A fare whenever possible and from 2021 A fare or cheapest Business fare.
