Can't say whether it is safe or not, but with absolute certainty and conviction I can say that it has spiralled very quickly downmarket in the last few years.

What used to be a pleasurable experience has now turned into a low life chore.

I have flown everything to first class in Emirates (excellent) to cattle class in Easy Jet. At least with Easy jet I got pretty much what I paid for.

Qatar was lousy, BA was lazy, Virgin was pretty good, Europa was OK, Iberia was OK, Lufthansa was passable, Thai was passable, Jet was interesting, Cubana actually had cockroaches on board, the list goes on and on.

Point is most of these airlines used to take pride in their service, now we really are just SLF

I used to enjoy the SLF part of my work, but nowadays I would rather take a bus.

Air Travel, a steep fall from grace.
