The principle is great - however I want to reduce time spent waiting around and would rather eat on a plane (when I can't do much else) than spend an hour of my non travel time getting to the airport earlier

Agreed - though I never travel economy internationally :(

Given the severe lack of lounges in Oz - this is a massive reduction in the benefit - in fact I see no benefit of the PP inclusion now

If this is any less than AU$200k I will be astonished

I wonder how long it will be before the iPad Pro and iPhone XS have similar treatment....
