Earlier this year I was not allowed to use the economy toilets as I was on a J ticket with QR. The queue for the toilets just wasn't moving fast enough in our cabin. But the FA's flatly refused, standing at the entrance to the economy section with arms blocking the curtain.

I had once an urgent need to use front loo's whilst myself traveling in Y (row 6 or so); I was actually advised by CSM that I should preferably use the rear toilet but I have asked friendly if he can make a one-off approval for a gold member. I just made it in on time.

So in short, if you don't like the airline's position just ignore it. We've been over this ground in numerous threads. It always comes down to some people saying "I don't care what the airline says and whether or not there are announcements telling people to stay in their ticketed cabin, I will do whatever I want and if they don't stop me then it's allowed."

BUT ... from enforced habit, I still never bypass an airport loo. Just in case.

I'm off to Buenos Aires tomorrow at 7.15am by mini bus which has no toilet and it'll be a three hour journey. 
They will stop by request, however as it means a diversion I prefer to keep it in. So instead of my usual three breakfast coffees I'll be limiting myself to one small one.

When this happens does anyone make a note of it and file a complaint with the airline instead of coming here to whinge about it?
The higher fare paid for premium passage includes the absence of lengthy lines for the lav. The pressing needs of the low-fare flyers whether medical or trolley-induced are of no concern. The cabin crew should redirect those from the rear who want to encroach on the privileges for which we have paid. The only way to prevent future reluctance or refusal to protect our privileges to promptly pee will be complaints to higher authorities.

If someone has an emergency, go for it! Yes, economy seats are supposed to be separate, and premium seats are purchased due to all the amenities. However, I would much rather not smell someones accident for the entirety of my flight. That would be more off putting than having a que near my seats for premium toilets.

If the route to the rear toilet is blocked by a BoB trolley, causing the queue to the front toilet to extend past the curtain, does a CE passenger have to walk back to the ET cabin to join the back of the queue or can he/she claim ‘priority peeing’ and jump the queue? Should a ‘peeing group’ be printed on the boarding pass to avoid any confusion?
