What is unclear is whether or not the 1-2-3 rule will still apply in US dollars, or in local currency.
I think that the writer was awkwardly stating that in order to compete, you would have to offer two class service on a wide body. You are never going to have a truly low cost structure to Europe, so you need to find a way to raise enough revenue to justify flying over there.
