CAT 1
If it bothers you that much, in the immortal words of Zammo......just say no.
Brit bus,
It doesn't bother me in that way, as it doesn't affect me (although I know of some it will). I was trying to find out if this kind of thing is common practice, and are there any other UK operators applying this policy - if so how has it gone (someone told me BMIBaby did/do this)!
Tsk, tsk. So many young whippersnappers around these days, who haven't read 'Fate is the Hunter' by Ernest K Gann.
Mumbo,
Alas, I'm too long in the tooth to class myself as a "whippersnapper".
Anyway,
Thanks to those whom have added constructive replies.
