For what it's worth, we've had a blended rate for a while. We flew the 737-500 (122 seats) and the -800 (175) seats for the same rate since the -800 showed up in 2013. 43% more seats for the same money.
If they're going to add wide bodies or RJs, it's going to require an un-blending of the 737 rate as well, I think.
