   >$2300 pays for the incentives needed to get prior ticketed pax to give up   
   seats. No   
   >spare 747s lying around the aprons awaiting shuttle duty.   
      
   More likely it was a glitch in the pricing software.  Seats are priced   
   by fare bucket, the most expensive fare bucket is Y, and the regular Y   
   walkup fare is $540, not capacity limited or anything.  I see that   
   $2300 fare, but I don't see any reason Delta should have offered it   
   and not the $540 fare.
