I'm a regular air commuter and admit that I'm SLF. I don't have a problem with this. I pay the lowest fare I can and accept that the whole experience is price-driven. I'm polite to all the airport & airline staff, and all the ones I've spoken with have been very helpful & pleasant.
The only gripe I've got is with the ridiculous security theatre that we all have to go through and different interpretations of what is and isn't allowed.
