Hi, CO757. Good to see you here.

You're right, Shareholder. I may not recognize the standard of a good club or restaurant. I would hope that CO will never stoop so low as to screen its pax based on income, good looks, fancy clothing, or who they know, the way so many of the "good" clubs and restaurants do.

When I fly FC or BizFirst, it's usually with upgrades - either Elite or paid with miles. Do I want CO to have to pay more to develop enough flying sommeliers to staff every flight? Hell, no.

But I'll tell you this: If I'm paying to be in the front cabin, it's because someone has decided that I need to spend that time working productively. If that's the case, I don't want to sit with an empty tray in front of me for even an extra 5 seconds while the F/A has to stand there watching you cup a glass of red wine in your hand to warm it before you swirl it around, bring it to your mouth, breathe the vapors, taste the wine, and spit the remnants.

If that's the level of service you want, I suggest you go to a 3-cabin airline, fly F, and leave the rest of us in the business class cabin. Until then, though, maybe you can help me with a question: when the utensils come all wrapped up in the napkin, how am I supposed to tell which is the correct teaspoon?
