That's not a true E+ product of course, but it's better than nothing.
As I bounded up the stairs just now, I realized that an E+ section would likely never happen. Right now, I cherish the reclining exit-row seats (including 12A on the 145s, which is FC on those flights). Perhaps a real attempt to keep the middle seats open in the elite section would help (as has been the subject of many a harangue on this board).

Problem there is the darn full flights...darn those full flights. Can't Larry do something about that?
