are you going to make me google this? I have no idea what you are talking about.
however, in answer to your question, flight attendants and I get along quite well. I get along swimmingly (at first that said swingingly) with all or most service industry folks. even lawyers. and my rant was actually stored up from not-so-recent history, as I have been fortunate to receive upgrades of late.
in fact, I was mildly surprised last time I was on a plane I was seated in the last row of first class (small plane, no business class) and I noticed that the flight attendant put up a detachable strap (the kind that chains on to both sides of the aisle) between first class and coach, I assume to keep the proles out of our bathroom. This can't be allowed by the FAA can it? I'm sure that the front exit door is the closest for Not Bob and his wife, who are on their annual outing to some Dallas NASCAR event and who lucked their way into bulkhead row seats (more legroom!) in the front of coach because the lady at the ticket counter thought Not Bob was sorta cute. We wouldn't want them to burn up in the wreckage because they couldn't get past the prole-gate would we?
