When has this worked out for us, I believe the same thing was said about many things before but never goes our way! 380 pay rates come to mind!! Sadly we cannot count on the aggressive contract enforcement via grievances by our own legal team they always want a sure win or they will not fight.
The loop hole is obvious. Just schedule a flat seat on a flight that doesnt offer a higher class of service. Easy to see.
