I would like, in no particular order and considering that premium tickets often cost over £1000:

- to not have to stand the same queue as economy pax at check in (doesn't cost much to change the signs on a couple of desks)

- to be able to pay a bit extra at the airport to get in the airline lounge subject to space being available (thereby taking extra money from pax when lounge is underused)

- a free newspaper (cost 50p ish?)

- a drink before take off (even if it's only water or orange juice which costs a few pence) as it can be a long time between boarding and take off, especially at LHR

- better entertainment than economy class with seat back TV (already in place in WTP)

- wider seat than economy and more legroom (already in place in WTP)

- same meal service (already in place in WTP)

- to sit upstairs in the hump on 747-400s - surely this cabin is just the right size for world traveller plus and would it not make more sense to have all the club seats downstairs together?

- a curtain and PA's to discourage economy pax from wandering through the cabin willy nilly and using the toilet that SHOULD only be for us

- more frequent flier points to reflect the extra money spent

- NO FRUIT SALAD AND CAKES FOR BREAKFAST!!!!!! what's wrong with cereal?

I wander what the chances are of actually getting any of this though...
