Quote: I get that.. I was responding to someone who made it sound like the paying passener shouldn't be standing in line with non rev passengers. My point is, if they are both paying fo the same annual fee, they should get the same benefits.
Quote: So I should be able to list for a 8 AM nonrev flight I have zero chance of making, for $0, then come into the Centurion lounge and take up space and eat and drink all day long for free, and come back every single day? Right alongside the actual traveler who actually paid money for their ticket and is actually trying to use the lounge to make their travel easier? That doesn't seem like a great system to me.
Like most things going wrong these days, the attempt to make everything fair and open to all has made the entire system suck. It's like a dumbed-down version of socialism that instead of lifting everyone, brings everyone down to the lowest common denominator.
