And on different equipment as well. Pricing seems to be based more on the load of the particular flight in conjunction with the anticipated demand. It's why very early AM flights are often cheaper than others. Just one data point...tomorrow, for example, the 787 is pricing the same as the narrow bodies in both classes of service on a series of flights during the late AM to late afternoon banks.
