And in expressing your disagreement with this new policy, you automatically become the recipient of name calling because you have the audacity to disagree with someone/some issue.
This sure seems like the case with some on here.
I'm just astounded by the lack or courtesy and reciprocity. I find it astonishing there are those here who find it unacceptable that even if I were to concede that on 99% of the flights everyone else can have the run of the plane; but, expect, during those rare times when I must work, to board first after paying for a full F fare.
If I'm an entitled jerk, I can't even come up with an adequate enough colorful metaphor to label the "because I have young children, I'm more important than you even if you've paid whatever and need to prepare for the preparation of your life" clique.
I must have been in a cave to have missed the advent of this militant group.
