I booked it on UA as a A-fare one direction, and F the return (F on 3-class 777). I just checked the same trip on the CO website, as an M fare. The M fare is actually more! Does an M fare "work" like an A fare, or does there have to be upgrade space available? Ben-

On a $284 round-trip ticket (I connected to EWR via BWI), I was offered an upgrade to first-class for $99 each way. The web indicated 3 seats were available for this upgrade price. I took it from LAS-EWR and immensely enjoyed the great BusinessFirst seats and AVOD system on a 757-200. My only regret was declining the upgrade from EWR-LAS. Anyone else offered a super cheap transcon upgrade on CO? By the way, I am a 1K on UA and used my UA FF number.

However, if you want to go somewhere desirable, like SFO or LAX, it's at least $1100 with M class fare. I guess that’s selective transcons, like EWR – SEA, with ~$600 fare.
