There are a handful of us who still prefer AS for a variety of reasons - tired of UA, lower F cabin fares, Atmos better fits our mileage use needs and partner flying -- but even sitting in a passenger/ticket-buying seat, it's quite obvious UA is capturing the yield out of SFO and AS hasn't figured out how to do the same, so they're taking their toys and going elsewhere.
Lost? It was never enough of a battle to consider it a competition…
