I think this is the first time I can remember that US has initiated a blanket fare increase.

I highly doubt that a fare increase on Tuesday night or Wednesday had any impact on Wednesday or Thursday loads. Most tickets, especially for holiday travel, are purchased further ahead than that.The Thanksgiving rush this year was much more pleasant for all involved, including customers AND employees, and may have been a direct result of rising fares.
