On my regular route it is an additional £1000 between a Y flex+ and a J saver and when I have to do this route every three weeks, every second less I have to spend in the airport the better. So yes, I expect to get off first and avoid the families and all the bottlenecks after disembarking, not because I think I am better than anyone travelling in economy but because I have paid a lot more to enjoy this perk.

Anyway back on subject, at least with having a 2 class you are going to have a relatively new J seat, decent screen (not the horrible grey one) and a plug without having to use an adaptor to charge your laptop.
really annoys me after a couple of bottles of Dom and a nice bottle of red if I have to stagger down the stairs with my wife, toddler and nanny past all those pesky people in third class
