Should priority tagged bags be delivered first...? Well, what's the point in 'priority' if they are delivered with other bags? Also, it makes some sense to delivery them first since many pax with priority bags will probably be off the plane first and therefore at the carrousel first to claim their bags and 'relieve' the burden... .

Certainly makes you want to do HBO.
