Thank you so much for this valuable insight.  I would not have considered this in a thousand lifetimes.

 

Your insight is truly appreciated.

If someone doesn't know what the A in Frequent Flyer A means, now they should know.

This is profound.  Reminds of something I learned in a business 101 class in college - something about supply and demand having some type of financial relationship.

This is well beyond profound.  It is downright genius.

I really don't understand the point of your snarky comments.  They're not helpful and contribute nothing to the conversation.  Moreover, your comments are neither respectful nor courteous, as per the user guidelines* to which you agreed.

 

To be honest, it's verbal bullying...and says a lot about you.

 

*Be respectful and courteous.

I believe that both of us supported the user's original comment.

 

Yes, with more competition the price goes down.  Yes, we celebrate that observation and both are raising our glasses in toast!

 

It was great insight.  Not sure what your concern is, however, we both supported the OP.
