Personally, I think it's sad the major airlines decided to go after market share and therefore compete with the bottom of the barrel. GM doesn't target Chevy owners for it's Cadillac line and if it did the Cadillac would soon be another Chevy.
Are you suggesting I won’t get seat side carved roast beef or 8 ounces of filet mignon with a Bernaise sauce and limitless Krug and Grand Crux Bordeaux if most of the cabin is filled with people upgraded on $99 one way transcons? Considering that a good steakhouse meal is going to run that much or more anyway? THE NERVE! I SHALL HAVE TO WRITE MY MEMBER OF CONGRESS!
(Truthfully Mint on B6 seems to be doing OK. Of course they give free upg-oh, wait they don’t.)
