However, these 37% seems to be mainly leisure traverlers as business travelers are more likely to buy Y fares.

This might be true for execs of Enron or Worldcom.... but I think I have flown on a Y fare once for biz. Its either H,K,V fares on short hops or F/B trans-*. If im paying for F/B I don't need status to upgrade, I already am. If I'm flying on the cheap.... US isn't gona be it. And if I'm flying up front... it will be on AA, laptop power in a FC seat.. what a novel concept...
