I went to rural Thailand back in 2007 to teach English for a month with a group from my university. Our plane died at the gate in Miami and, in order to make all of our connections to get to Thailand we made last minute changes that put us on Thai Air from LAX. Best damn flight I’ve ever been on and it was in basic, seated in the absolute middle of the middle section and I’m someone who’s unable to sleep on a plane unless I have the window. So I was awake for most of those 17.5 hours. Plane was beautiful, crew was beautiful and friendly. There was framed art on the walls and multiple full meals on the flight.
EDIT: Forgot to finish before I posted. The trip back we took Northwestern Airlines and, hoo boy. Meals were served out of a sense of obligation, stacked at last seat of the row to be passed out ourselves. When we hit the part where they wanted people’s seat backs and tray tables up they just went down the row and grabbed end seats with people asleep in them and pushing them up. Such a stark difference.
Yeah, our airlines suck. Every time I take any airline that’s non American based (i.e EU or Asia) the experience is wild. Hell I got free alcohol on the Dutch airlines they didn’t care lol
asian airlines does comfort over stacking people like sardines for profit, because they see the ROI as a constant revenue, rather to rip off a bandaid like with american ones.
People complain video games have too many micro transactions, but they learned from the American airline companies.
I can take a 2hr trip in Asia and get a full damn meal.

God damn son, you commie fuck, won’t you think about the shareholders?
Some guy could buy his 3rd yacht if you weren’t so fucking greedy that you need to be “treated like a human being with a modicum if dignity”
