The "VIP Hall" (formerly, Royal Family Hall) at the main train station in Nizhny Novgorod

A very important person (VIP) is a person who is accorded special privileges due to his or her status or importance.^[1]

Examples include celebrities, heads of state/heads of government and other politicians, major employers, high rollers, high-level corporate officers, wealthy individuals, or any other notable person who receives special treatment for any reason. The special treatment usually involves separation from common people, and a higher level of comfort. In some cases, such as tickets to events, and at airports, VIP may be used as a title in a similar way to premium, and these "VIP tickets" can be purchased by anyone, but still meaning separation from other customers, own security checks etc.

VIP syndrome

VIP syndrome is when a perceived VIP uses his/her status to influence a given professional to make unorthodox decisions under the pressure or presence of the individual.^[2]^[3]

The phenomenon can occur in any profession that has relationships with wealthy, famous, and/or powerful clients or patients,^[4] particularly medical or airline professions.^[2]^[4]
