Evidence: Free t-mobile internet is provided to CRC members, not to WC members or those paying full fare for business class. CRC use a bar system in which tipping is expected. Delta snack offerings are significantly less than NW, as further evidence the typical breakfast spread at a WC is muffins, bagels, occassionally mini-donuts or curlers, fruit, yoghurt, and Special K bars. At CRC the typical breakfast is 3 types of snack mix and an oversized fig newton.
Internet access: But once the merger is consumated- a WC member then becomes a CRC member and subsequently will get free internet access. The full Business Class thing I agree is not a "nice" thing with the CRC.
Bar system: Actually, there is no tipping in the CRCs. Some rogue bartenders tried this at some airports previously but it is not the policy nor the norm. There are no glasses with tip "singles" anywhere in sight and I have never tipped a CRC bartender.
CRC breakfast snacks: actually, most CRCs (if not all) feature yoghurt, mini-muffins, biscotti, Nutella spread, Biscoff cookies, etc., This has been in place for at least 6-8 months now. I have had these "spreads" at JFK, ATL, BOS, SAN, CVG, SLC, LAX, and SFO.
