Tell me why does the 747 at 875k pounds pay the same as a 787 at 550k pounds. Yet the 320 pays more than the 319 with a weight differential of less than 8k pounds.

If we are really going to endorse pay banding the lets go single aisle and dual aisle. Considering the 767-3 has 5 less seats than the 787-8, it should be banded with dual aisle airplanes. Narrow body and wide body.
