So I guess there won't be any instances of air rage on Southwest? Or on 757's with FC to the left and Y to the right?
On a separate but somewhat related note there was a recent article in the NYT about two of the big cruise lines that offer ship-within-a-ship experiences for the highest-paying customers. Separate cabins, pool, restaurant, bar, etc. One of the lines (Crystal?) took the approach of almost completely separating these passengers from everyone else even allowing private boarding/disembarking and pretty much making it so they were completely invisible to the rest of the passengers. The other line (RC?) took the opposite approach and deliberately allowed the regular passengers to be able to catch glimpses of the premium passengers and their restaurants etc. in an attempt perhaps to encourage them to pay up next time. So apparently there are different schools of thought within the travel industry as to the effect of allowing the masses to see what they're missing.
