If flown by 700/900 pilots it would have to be paid at 76 seat pay rates. If they created another pilot group for the 550, it could be paid at 50 seat rates. See LOA 4.

Got a ride on one of these out of ORD during my last commute home.
Very spacious, lots and lots of carry on room. The bulkhead between 1st and "Comfort" is a stowage compartment for larger carry-on. No gate checking anything.
Far and away nicer than the 200 interiors or any EMB135/145...

With the extraordinary high CASM that those will have, we'll see if they stay around if UAL doesn't get the ability to add seats to them.

This time it seems that the pilot groups at the respective mainline carriers have a much better idea of exactly how big of a sham that is.
