Maindog,

I include business as premium, and the 777 has a higher percentage of premium seats compared to our 747.

But my whole point is: how do you know more premium seats would increase profits?

It seems to me that most pilots think :

better product equals more profit.

But this is not necessarily the case, that is all I am saying.

What is certain however: a bettter product equals higher cost.

Is there are market for a higher priced seat ? How do you know?

Plus polls among hundreds of thousand of passenger do not support the alleged decline in quality in the first place. This is a fact.
