Maybe they are compensating for the decrease in price by taking away space.
Coming down from what? Similar to how gas is less than it was a year ago but still X% higher than it was in 2020? F is way more expensive than it used to be, period. I have several routes that I have flown for 10+ years on a regular basis and F is significantly more expensive these days. IAH-SNA was $800 like clockwork for years and years (moved from SNA to IAH, so travel back home frequently since 2011). Now, you rarely see it for less than $1000 and most times I need to flight its $1500. In general its expensive to the point where I sometimes refuse to pay and opt to participate in the PP lottery where I usually lose, even as a GS. IAH-HNL is another example. That used to be a $1200 roundtrip... now, you need to break out $2500+.

When I saw this feature I thought, "I bet it doesnt even work." I was correct. Neither of our chargers were functional. Similar to the bluetooth that works about 5% of the time. Or the Wifi that works 23% of the time.
