India is one of those destinations where I won't go unless I at least have status in Y if I'm not flying F/J. You land at god-awful hours and just want to get out of the airport ASAP ... fortunately, I can access relatively quicker immigration lines with my special visa, plus my bags should come out more quickly with status.

On the way back, being able to expedite check-in and go to a lounge at dark o'clock before a long flight is so worth it. Without that, you'll spend way too much time in the queues.
