Use of the toilets at the front

[markis10]

Not always compatible with my "i'll just squeeze in one more drink" approach.

Especially when you break the seal..........

As for the block, I am a little sad as I will no longer be amused by people trying to access to coat locker thinking its a toilet!

Considering AFF is a forum which is big on short hand (eg Y, is "Economy Class" really that difficult to write?), I'm surprised we haven't implemented a standard argument numbering system in regards to Y pax in J toilets, as when the topic is raised from time to time the usual suspects generally respond with the same standard reasons as to why they are pro \ against. (As I was about to as well)

So to counter your standard arguments #57 and #29, I'll use standard arguments #62 and #84...

I would have thought #1's and #2's were more appropriate

Input #69 from me, rear toilet are best because I can stand up straight, regardless of class.

To be fair this is a (relatively) new development for Virgin.

Answer number #74, go wee wees in the terminal before boarding. I cant think of anything worse than using a highly trafficked and improperly cleaned aircraft toilet. Someone with 'long plumbing' invariably misses the bowl and god knows what is lurking on the tap, bin flap and door handle. People neither flush, nor wash their hands afterwards in case you were wondering....:shock: and thats IF they remember to close and lock the door behind them.

Answer #59 - do you really want to wipe your
nether-regions with paper that someone has handled with their filthy hands, dropped on the floor and rolled back up. Or mistaken the top of the toilet roll for the bin and shoved their used paper on top of the roll that other people will use.

When I think about what I've seen in aircraft toilets the idea of even using one is highly unappealing.

Completely unpoliced on DJ862 this evening. No barrier and no passengers turned back.

Also the flexi meal no longer includes a bottle of water, but does include an indelible garlic biscotti. Worst enhancement ever.

Worst enhancement ever.

Big Call!

... and doesn't everyone get free water now?

 

[Mh4k]

Hehe yes tongue is in cheek for that one. I'm just in a bad mood as the middle seat mate in 3E had me contortionist-posed in 3F.

Free cups of water but trying to manage a water cup, a wine cup, the flexi tray and an iPad at once is not easy. In the end I spilled the water on my leg. At least you could stick the bottle between your leg and the seat for some extra room.

Should do. I also wonder how long those cup holders (water/coffee/tea cups) they have on the side of the trolley cart are going to last.:shock:

Exactly, all guests in economy receive complimentary spring water along with tea and coffee.

Business Class passengers receive artisan water, either still or sparkling.

If there's one thing i will never understand it's fancy water.

Oh jolly good, I think the latest fad name for it "fracked" water, the sparkling variety is natural gas bubbles kindly sponsored by the coal seam gas lobby.......and you thought you weren't allowed to smoke on board any more, because of passive smoking fears!

I get it. Water tastes better out of a pretty bottle. I swear payless water is just tap water. Perrier on the other hand is hand bottled by beautiful virgin women at the base of the alps and tastes like ambrosia.

 

[Mh4k]

I have no need for fancy water, I'd just like my water to either come in a bottle so I can stow it or for the tray table to be big enough to accommodate the food, wine and water simultaneously.

Also the garlic biscotti were clearly invented by someone who is attempting to wage war on the very concept of food itself

A Seatback/armrest IFE solution would give you more room.........

 

[Mh4k]

Actually not really - I gave up on attempting to use the iPad and still had in sufficient room. I've sat in Row 3 and enjoyed the flexi snacks probably two dozen times in the last four months and haven't had this problem before - but then I almost never sit in the window seat and today's middle seat passenger was of unusual size. So I am mostly just having a whinge about the biscotti and the missing water bottle. :evil:

You may enjoy this little story re bottled water (the fake water waiter in the second half is good).


I do share your sentiments.
