If it did, then yes I agree with you - somebody would not mind spending $5000 on a first class ticket if it would guarantee entry. | |

If spending $5000 on a first class ticket would guarantee someone entry (or even just support their entry) then there are people out there who wouldn't think twice about throwing that money away. | |

If however, the payslips show high income, the ticket class makes no difference, I guess. | |
