It means that CO is going to get a lot of us to just snag a connection to the Pac NW (if we're using miles for ups/FC tix) instead of the nonstop. It's annoying to be on the waitlist for FC - some would rather take the sure thing, even if it means a connection in Houston. Presumably, they want us makin' the connections and staying off of the sweet transcons with their big time A fares.

It's probably a good business decision on CO's part, but it really *looks* bad. It wouldn't kill 'em to put a couple of F seats out every day to SFO.
