I just didn't know you could pay that same money and actually not be confirmed... looks like an interesting incremental revenue model... . If I understand you correctly (only 1 cappuccino in today so that's not a given), If someone pays that fare, doesn't get upgrade and is still in the same prem select seat they had at booking, I cant imagine they are happy (or would do it very often again). Would be curious how that also affects the upgrade rates for the 75/10Ker's since the release..
It has worked this way for years and years and years...
