Thanks Amsterdam for the reply, hard to get sometimes.
I'll have to continue to troll the boards, talk to people and eventually make a decision but would be nice to do it right at the 2003 year mark so that all my flights in 03 will count with only 1 airline should I choose to defect. If I stay it won't matter.
My fares are personal but my children and my entire family are in SLC so I expect to fly a lot and could use the cheaper fares due to volume but being stocky and wide the seats are just about too small for me to sit in hip to hip. I'm just wide, broad shoulders and the like and airplane seats aren't made for that.
So no, less confusion and thanks for your response and I wish you better luck in your business so a Y fare will be nothing for you
