My recently trip to South Africa made me think about what we expected as passengers. I must confess I had an awesome trip and I had no issues. On my own with no kids was very nice and I used points to fly comfortably. I used QFF point on EK metal to Cape Town and QF economy, through Sydney, on the return.
My first flight was when I was 12 years and the family had to save for years. Then, we expected expensive tickets, we expected the danger in flying, we expected coughpy food, we expected to be queued, we expected to be delayed, we expected to get no sleep and we expected to be grumpy but polite.
Now kids are flying at birth (not literary) and tickets are cheap. People expect 1st class food and service in economy, people expect no delays, people expect to survive the flight (), people expect others to accept your grumpiness and unacceptable demands.
Have we became rude and impatient….?
