As the thread is about holiday jets and that's all my only extremely limited experience of them is, I will add just one thing that's irrelevant compared to most previous posts which are more about the aeroplane rather than human cargo.

In cattle-class configuration, at 6' 1" I didn't fit and for that reason alone I hated the things!

I'm far from a regular or even seasoned traveller so I've no idea of which airlines now but I'm pretty sure it was Luton to Gerona and return, and then Luton to Palma and return in late 1973 and then, long after, Gatwick to Nice and back in 1985.

My heart sank when years later I walked out to the apron at Gatwick and saw another 1-11...
