Back in the 60s, most people rarely flew do to the upfront cost of the ticket...zero change fees were hardly a purchase incentive.

I also hope others follow, but I can remember 1992 when AA changed the game with "permanent" value pricing. The majors quickly copied, but I don't think the $25 change fees lasted the year.
