short of a bottle of Krug and a feast waiting for us onboard, the transfer fee is obscene for a 30 minute trip. the St. Regis seaplane is less for crying out loud- using that as the comp to head off the "but its the WA, we should just be thankful they're allowing the likes of us to exist in the same world' replies i've read upthread (dude... take a Tony Robbins course or something and work on your sense of self worth!).

i've been on yachts before and, especially for such a short trip, it's, well.... a short trip on a boat! it's not going to be special to the 9 and 10 digit net worth crowd either. thus, i hope WA's plan is to make it special so that it feels like a wonderful start and end to the experience- instead of, ya know, feeling gouged and violated!

and, yeah... i booked after the update (but didn't know it was after the update) so... awesome.
