air travel is getting better, people just don't put in effort to learn how to do it
it's like picking the cheapest restaurant every time and complaining you get crap food
you have to research which restaurant to go to
- octo888 1y agoI agree long haul. Eg choosing Emirates A380 in Economy But short haul, it's like having a choice between McDonalds or Burger King. 28" vs 29" pitch. £40 vs £50 for a checked bag etc.
- kiwijamo 1y agoIt's tricky tho cos Emirates B777 in Economy is not great so does depend on whether the route you're flying is guaranteed to have a A380. Flew them recently where one leg was A380 and the other B777, and could not be A380 for both legs.
- octo888 1y agoOh yeah absolutely. All part of the research! Google Flights shows the aircraft type, which is useful (though of course the caveat is there can be substitutions on the day)
- forgotTheLast 1y agoI don't fly on widebody aircraft very often so I don't consider myself an expert, but long flights in B777 economy class with a 3-4-3 seat configuration shouldn't be legal
- octo888 1y agoHaha totally agree! The move to 3-4-3 on the 777 was a pivotal moment of the enshittificafion of air travel IIRC
