For me it was well worth the $10 on a 4.5 hour flight. I can't imagine it would take that much usage to make your money back and it would then take away the sting of having to fly to the west coast on the M80 (I like the aircraft by the way, just hate that there is no IFE on a 4.5 hour flight).
Maybe they could look into a program where they block the middle seat for top tier folks up in the front of coach. Call it Executive Coach? Oh, wait, they already tried that too.
