Simply stating it's overkill. Heck no one is even going to see you use the thing most likely.
Panamera does have quite a lot of space behind, as it is a hatchback. Cayenne is a great SUV, but not much room. United uses Mercedes GL (GLS), and SClass. As much as I love VAG products, those may make more sense for hauling pax and carry-ons. It makes sense for AA to use Cadillac, but outside of the Big E, the other products (SRX/CTS) are rather unappealing.
