Still my point remains -- what happens when the only seats left are the more expensive ones -- will they bump 1K/GS up to offer the lower price?

Here is the article I read: Polaris Studio flight costs more

To me this is like UA charging more for the Polaris equipped EWR-SFO flights using the 777... Wonder how many people will pay more just for the flight, and for the seat...
I assume that these birds will also do SFO-EWR-SFO flights A TON and there might be a small premium
