S.
True, you are absolutely correct. I'm just thinking that he could fly RDU-LAX-BNE for cash in Y versus RDU-IAH-LAX-HNL-GUM-CNS-BNE on CO (neglecting the partner options via ICN or DXB). I'm married to a non-flyertalker and so I know the way normal people think. Given the choice, we'd be flying through LAX in Y. I'd bet his wife thinks the same way. Don't you?
