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...

From my limited research, UA is not releasing below D on the first few days the new aircraft is on the route. After the first week or so (I didn't track to the day), they're releasing all the way down to P.

There are only eight of them. Presumably it will be just like E+ - a few pax will get premium seats they did not pay for. Personally, I prefer to be farther away from the lavs.
