Well, sure, it's ridiculous to pay that much if you only travel a couple times a year. It's like how paying $700/year for airline lounge access is ridiculous if you only travel a couple times a year.

But $800 for a family of 4 is much closer to the average person than, say, using a private jet to skip security lines.
