If I buy a lot of expensive cars with Ford, should they expidite me at the DMV? Or if I get "white glove treatment" at Disney World by spending more money, should they expidite me at the post office?

Your analogy is way off, in the first case the actions at the DMV are not an *integral* *ongoing* *significant* part of the opperation of your car. Standing in 2 hour security lines (on what for non-business travelers happens to be a holiday for example) for a 2 hour flight IS.

In the second case I don't know where disney got into the picture but do you think people who do mass business mailings stand in line to send their mail? No, the have door to door pick up and billing accounts
