Maybe this is heading towards reserved seats and multiple classes, but I doubt it. All they're doing is charging for priority boarding, in other words making queue jumping available to anyone who pays for it, rathert than giving it away for free for certain people as they do at the moment.
One question though- A parent with a 4 and a 6 year old get onto the plane to discover 3 seats left spread all over the plane. After it's pointed out that they should have stumped up for priority boarding, what happens next?
