The thought of better t&cs here in Europe, would be nice. However not realistic. The European Union has deregulated aviation, simply to reduce costs of transportation. EU is a trade union, and to be efficient, you need cheap transportation, to be able to sell a spanish produced lemon in Stockholm, for almost the same price as in Madrid.
