Well I was entertained when I did the Surface buyback survey. The lowest price being $100 and going up from there. I was looking for the $20-$30 range, maybe the page didn't correctly load all the choices. I was hoping to get it as a backup anchor for the boat.
Alaska gets their iPads for $50, at least a few years ago.

Not necessarily true. (highlighted). The rest of the post is absolutely correct. Non-rev is definitely not the deal it once was.

That will be my "give" for the new contract.

Assuming I don't get kicked out of my seat, I will have paid $169 for my family of 4 to fly round trip from Atl to Chicago and back with a small detour in GRR. Free is better, but I can't complain too much. The best part is I'm done for the month, so no stress about getting home for work. I'd be very leery about nonrevving if I had work commitments.

Care to post the numbers for JFK-LHR? Most of the ones I have flown are not full, but we are making great $$ there. I don't really care to argue this because the point is that LF is not necessarily an indicator of profit on all routes/flights.

Then please don't assume that a post regarding generally full flights equals more profit (which is more often true than not) applies to every route/flight. I helping the guy see why MikeF16 mentioned profit.
I've been on the 73N for roughly 18 months. I can say with a straight face that the LF I've seen is well over 90%.

JFK-LHR isn't full because we sell a premium product on our other airline. The ticket revenue for that city pair has actually improved greatly since we bought Virgin Atlantic.
