1. Feeders to long haul J (cash cow for Eutopean airlines)
2. Corporate contracts (certain carrier position = C-class travel)
3. Flexibility (some Corpos prefer to buy fully flex ticket rather than then pay for each change)
4. Cheap upgrades (especially on BA or LX, but not only)
5. Growing 'luxury' leisure market (dirty cheap P fares on LH to PMO or SKG - sometimes available only through NDC channel)
