OK. Syllogism time.
EUA is based on yield management which is based on historical data.
Therefore, EUA is based on historical data.
I will not name names, but will say this is *not* speculative. Go after my misapplication of logical constructs, my poor diction, semantics, etc., all you want. (You can also do the same for rationalizing not going to another airline, and learning their new system, the ropes there, learning curve all over again, etc. But once I get through these remaining trips in coach on CO I'll be yucking it upstairs on a UA 747 for as much as I'd have paid CO to sit in coach on the same trip).
Guys, six to one, half-a-dozen to the other... the underlying changes and their effect are
real.
If these changes work in your favor, all the more power to you.
