@BrianSumers  An anonymous @united source confirms the airline is considering a similar move. “Densification” is a big buzz word.

@e_russell  American happy w/ basic Y fare roll out. ~50% of pax who 1st looked at basic Y booked higher fare class.

@e_russell The cost of changing an airline ticket is “not about the actual changing of the ticket”, says $UAL Kirby at hearing.

@e_russell When United involuntarily bumps pax, they determine who by (1) the fare class paid and (2) their FF status, says CEO Munoz at hearing.
