I fail to see the parallel between the serious health implications of second-hand smoking and "aesthetic environmental pollution" (although you should trademark that phrase...it's quite creative).

Nonetheless, this reminds me of the scene in Pretty Woman where the manager of the Beverly Hills Hotel gets his hackles up when Julia Roberts' character presents in the lobby in an outfit that leaves little to the imagination. Perhaps the hotel manager (played by Hector Elizondo) has a legitimate concern that the presence of a prostitute in the hotel will be offensive to the othe guests. He's, in part, in the business of selling "exclusivity."

I would expect few first class fliers--even those who pay for it--to rank "exclusivity" high on their list of reasons to fly up front.
