No - I'm not claiming they are different sections. That would be stupid.

I'm stating the simple - and well-known - fact that the price paid by the person in 17C (aisle) can be quite different from that paid by the person in 17D (also aisle).

I flew over 150 legs last year. Premier status on three different airlines.

Please stop with the ad hominen attacks and learn something about this market.

>fact that the price paid by the person in 17C (aisle) can be quite different from that paid by the person in 17D (also aisle).

The original claim was "We do row-by-row because, generally, people with higher status and/or fares sit closer to the front".

Everything you've written does not support this claim at all. Maybe you should learn something about reading comprehension.

Nice try. You wrote:

"The fares are exactly the same in the entire section of the cabin"

Which is simply put, completely false.

My response was: "The fares (on most airlines) are absolutely not the same throughout an entire section"...

Maybe you should learn something about logic and argumentation.

My claim was correct. At any point in time, the fares ARE exactly the same. If you don't believe that, then you're a moron because you're flat out wrong. I can't put it any nicer than that. When you buy a ticket, the price for seats 37A and 38B are exactly the same. Full stop. Again, if you don't believe this, you're stupid.

Are tickets differently priced at different times? Yes. Any idiot knows this: the airlines change prices over time to extract more money from last-minute buyers. This isn't what I was talking about, and it's obvious that's not what I was talking about, so if that's the basis of your argument, then you're a pedantic asshole.
