I also had that in my email today. Must be the first time in years I actually read those news.

But there is some good news, at least if executed like announced:

" Embarquement prioritaire" (priority boarding)

"Déploiement progressif à partir de mars 2012
Un déploiement progressif étant programmé à partir de mars 2012, SkyPriority sera d’abord lancé aux aéroports d’Amsterdam-Schiphol, Paris-Charles de Gaulle et Paris-Orly, et aux aéroports français desservis par AIR FRANCE et KLM, puis au cours des prochains mois dans des aéroports hors France desservis par AIR FRANCE et KLM. Début 2013, SkyPriority couvrira plus de 1 000 aéroports dans le monde."
(in bold: at airports in France served by AF and KL)

In other words: they have found the magic formula that suddenly makes priority boarding for domestic flights "operationally" possible! ^
