Come Fly With Me - If You Are Rich.


How much would you pay to avoid the common crowd? Now there is a great service available for 1% of the 1%. While the rest gets treated like crap going through security points, customs and struggling to get their baggage if you can afford, you can get the royal treatment. With a private entrance to suites at the airport and quick custom and security clearance, the service boasts that all you have to do is to walk 70 steps as while the rest walks about 2200 steps from the entrance to the plane. Capitalism continues to divide us and pushes those who are already at lower levels of the social structure further down.

Another article related to this by the Independent mentions that there are iPads showing the airport security and baggage queues. This adds insult to injury.

Now the very rich will be watching how hoi polloi suffer to get on planes (only to be further insulted as in the American Airlines incident) while they are sipping cocktails in comfy suites.

Steve and John.
