I reply that everyone in the queue has the same priority because we are all Club passengers. His dear lady wife chimes in, with an unmistakeable air of triumph, 'But WE are FULL FARE passengers. Most of the people here look as if they have had free upgrades, or are using air miles'. Micro-seconds before a riot breaks out, a staffer appears and insists the couple go to the back of the queue. Which they reluctantly do, amid much huffing and puffing and threats to 'take this insult up at the highest level'.
