But the whole issue is that Plus is treated as a halfway house between Premium economy and business class! And it’s neither!
Let’s count benefits of Plus,
- Lounge access (only at hubs)
- WiFi (not anymore)
- Seat selection (not anymore)
- Beverages (limited to two alcoholic internationally and one domestically)
- Food (unclear what is complimentary, on one flight it’s rationed on another it’s unlimited)
If i’m Gold/Diamond I should either buy drinks or food. I can even preorder food at a discount. Already seated at an emergency seat/extra legroom(which is not included in Plus). Already have access to lounges, fast-track, WiFi.
So, back to my original post, as Gold/Diamond you’re better-off in Go considering emergency exit seats and more likely having next seat empty than sitting in Plus like sardines and wait for their crap food in Europe routes to be served, not to mention all them eye rolling when asking for something!
