From the website cited, "The addition of new fare classes does not change the pricing of fares, but allows Continental to differentiate nonstop and connecting flights."</font>
Hence the new fare classes can be called 'Vengeance fares'. These will be used to punish low-fare airline entrants in CO nonstop markets, such as CrazyClown's favorite $1800 route, SFO-EWR. The fare classes will be used to sell tickets on capacity-saturating extra flights that CO will try to drive out the competitor with.
We'll see what CO will do when FL attacks CLE and B6 starts going into IAH
May the Blue Southwestern Spirit be with ATA
