My MBA 11" with 4GB ram works great as a travel laptop mostly for email & web or if I need to do a spreadsheet or a couple quotes for customers while on the road. The screen is a little small but the whole point is to keep size and weight to a minimum while traveling. I use mine whenever I'm on the road and have no need to upgrade it for what it does.

I understand your dilemma. The MBA 11" has a screen resolution of only 1366 × 768. Even though you won't get the hi-res "Retina" display in the 13" MBA you do get the larger screen, 1440 by 900 resolution, faster integrated graphics processor, and 8GB RAM. And you also get more battery life than the 11" MBA. It's definitely an upgrade over the old MBA 11". IMHO 8GB of RAM is plenty for this laptop and it's intended purpose and it's cheaper (and lighter) than the new entry 13" MBP.
