eUP Add-ons: Will this change the waitlist priority?

Hey Everyone,

I don't know if this topic has been covered in the "enhancement" thread so I thought I would ask...

So with the new "add-ons" to non-SE eUPs next year...would it be beyond the realm of possibility that AC would more likely give eUPs to non-SEs because of the extra revenue?

I wouldn't put it past them.

What does everyone else think?

It's pretty obvious that AC wouldn't deny 500 bucks so they can make 1 SE happy.

I don't like it but from the company's perspective, it makes sense.

SEs will start to cannibalize their young as well. I have always paid a higher price for flights and know I am higher on u/g list than those who paid less
