No. For those who bashed KL for this in this thread, no disagreement from my side that such things are ridiculous. We Dutch are soooo egalitarian. How the h*ll can our national airline think they can lure premium customers to pay this kind of money for a single drink. That is showing off behavior that may fit in other cultures, but not with us Dutch. While at the same time their J prices usually are way higher as competition. And with an on-board J product that is not bad, but certainly not at the level of the best competition (all planes except 787s do not have direct aisle access in J). So that you would expect at least that normal stuff is free for J pax in their lounge. As has been said, copying the Delta concept of free regular drinks with paid premium drinks from the same bar would be so much more logical.
