This stems from a comment made in a previous post of mine and is for fun only.
The service I would like to see is a laundry service. On the return leg, you send all your laundry in the day before your return flight, and your clean laundry is delivered to you at your arrival airport ready for customs.
Are there any other services people can think of?

How about allowing PE pax to pay a surcharge to have an Upper Class meal? Just a thought. Booked in advance obviously.

Tier points and miles to automatically credit when you have used miles to upgrade from Econ or PE - always a pain that the VS IT systems can't cope.....BA's system can manage this!

When using paid access to the clubhouse, not being turned away for arriving 15 mins early and told to come back 15 mins later. It's not as if we get there an hour early.

I disagree, it should be a fast forward button so I don't have to wait 4 months before I jet off

Have a raffle where a seat in UC goes to some one in PE and one in PE goes to Y or similar. They could charge a minmal amount per ticket and give proceeds to charity!! If the flight is over booked in Y or PE more seats could be given out. Op-Ups would never happen - Raffle ups are the way forward

You could add a nasty twist, and say that the 'winner' of the UC raffle gets to move to the now vacant seat in Y.
