The next airline fee that may be a reality soon? Paying extra to exit an aircraft quickly. USA Today reports survey findings that, "...16% of respondents were willing to pay to be at the front of the line when their flight lands. Of that group, 10% would pay $10 and 3% would pay as much as $20." New airline fees are nothing new and are crucial to some airlines to avoid financial disaster. Would you pay to get out of a flight faster?

    NOTHING ..
    Quite frankly ..

    common COURTESY ...
    Let the Disabled .. those with Small Children exit first ..
    (no pushing, no shoving .. just let them get up and exit in comfort .. )
    These fees are outrageous ..

    Boy what a rip off The regular price is already way too much. I would not want to pay one cent more. What else will they think of to pay extra for?

    i have paid more to leave first, but still have to wait until the luggage comes out and so you don't gain much....

    Ridiculous! What's next paying extra to be safer by sitting in front of the wings (where is most of the fuel that can ignite?)? A fee for a Pilot who got a full eight within 24 hours of your departure?

    And look very close the airlines that are profitable and growing are not using this or several other outdated models many have sold themselves works!

    I wouldn't pay to get off the plane faster. I would pay more to be moved to the front of the security checkpoint line though. :)

    Thanks to all my Amex points, and airline card points, I fly First Class, and that puts me either first or 5th. off the plane automatically....
    But that sort of a fee, is crappy....this stuff needs to stop...but it won't as long as people just go along with it, and don't complain...to the airline top brass....

    It simply does not take that much time to get off a plane - sheesh, reminds me of the dopey drivers who weave through traffic to get to the red light 15 seconds before the others. Stupid
