What gets me as a GS are the types of routes which sell out in First. I’m flying DEN-MEM today (on an E175) and first was sold out when I bought my tickets 3 weeks ago. Who is buying these seats? Why? The flight is like 100 minutes. I’m sure most folks in first are connecting, but why on earth are they paying extra for first?

A $150 upgrade is like paying United $100 an hour to treat you just a little bit less worse that all the others in coach.
