Also, CoachSelect is in test phase....if it does well, it *will* be expanded and you can bet virtually all the current PremiumSelect seats will go for sale and they will find a new set of less desirable seats to toss into the Premium pool, or maybe eliminate it altogether.

When it came to balancing the need for premium coach seating for Elites with an opportunity to raise abit more revenue from each flight, UA got it right. E+ for all elites, and E+ for sale per flight or per year for non Elites.

When it came time for NWA to do the same thing, they got it dead wrong.

Sometimes it amazes me how two companies in the same business can go to opposite ends of the spectrum when attempting to achieve the same result.
