Mark,

I must admit that I've not read your article or all the posts. I suspect this campaign is more about selling papers than protecting the public

The Public demand extremely Low prices and to make this possible seat pitch must be set at the bare minimum to make it pay. Margins are already razor thin and what your suggesting is asking us to raise the average families holiday cost by

Flights under 2 hours = £120

Flights 2 - 4 hours = £220

Flights 4 + anywhere between £220 & £500.

(These are rough figures worked out on the back of a fag packet.)

And I suspect that if your successful your next campaign wil be titled

"Why are the British paying more for their holidays than the europeans?"
