No doubt on some of the 757 routes, e.g. to LHR, EDI, I expect they could sell more J. However, we are talking 50 of these birds, not 16. I also think that having PE cuts into the demand for J on what are going to be max 7-8 hour flights. It will be interesting though as what UA announced will give us a good look into how PE sales are going vs J and how much cannibalism there is on shorter (i.e. not 12-15 hours) routes.
