I am not happy.

Chiming in on what is my weekly route:
- I'm not happy either on the 6 am elimination/back on/off depending on which day. Huge inconvenience-IIRC, United always drops flights in the winter, and pulls back on redeyes too, hopefully the 6am change isn't permanent.
- These flights are routinely packed and agree upgrades are rare/if not impossible, and GS doesn't mean diddly on these flights, including redeye back. If you want first, buy up. If I wait til a few days before, middle seat economy is a lucky score, if any seats at all.
- Have been flying JetBlue last few weeks out of desperation and darn their first class product is great.
- United/JetBlue are only lie flats left, and the IAH/EWR stopovers used to be attractive alternative. Thus, we're now seeing round trip business up to 3-4K.
