I'm not sure your analogy holds in all cases. There is definitely a market for true international F service to certain destinations out of New York (especially HKG, PEK, PVG, NRT, DEL, BOM, TLV & LON). Does CO offer an international F product? No.

There is definitely demand for more domestic F seats on Transcons out of EWR (especially to SFO and LAX). As frequent anecdotal evidence on this forum shows, CO Transcons are often sold out in F days if not weeks in advance on certain transcon flights. This has been the situation for years. Not until 739ERs come online next year will CO have taken any significant steps to meet the added demand.
