In this regard the airlines have become just like Banks....

It was once said that with the banks if you want to be recognised and have any say at all then take your money out of your accounts and buy shares in the bank instead....However,to buy shares in an airline is well....risky at best.

We have all known that to an airline the customer...sorry passenger is nothing more than a means to an end and the cheaper the fare the cheaper the attitude the airline has.

We've seen this with J* passengers arriving late at check in...even by only a few minutes and when there is a reasonable excuse and not just "we were running late because we slept in" explanation.We are living in an era where you get what you pay for....

Perhaps this will mean not only the premium economy zone as distinct to economy but a cut price/going for a song seating zone as well.

This way the passenger knows what they are in for....hang on.....Isn't that called Jetstar ...
