just like KH told us couple weeks ago.. fares haven't change, it just that the discount have gone down.
They accomplished that by certain methods:
* Change the UPG policies hoping we will buy higher fare just to upgrade FAILED
* Block out discount seat just to make us buy full fare. FAILED, we'll just travel less..
Another good evidence of phantom passenger was discovered last night... YYZ - YEG was full in all classes except Y,B,J, as soon as the web specials became available at about 3 EST yesterday... N class became available this morning sometime between 4am EST and 8am EST. No conincidence.
