I'd happily give up free booze in the MLL, or have the check in people give you one ticket. For some money AC could go back to the old YOW stlye lounge, where they poured.
Most people drink like fish when someone else is paying.
I would give up the V upgrades for H, but only if it can be confirmed at time of booking.
If lounge use is down dramatically so far in the days of March then maybe AC could hand out a few more MLL passes to their better customers.
