I am still amazed that when you pay less to fly than just about any other mode of transport that people still expect 1950's BOAC service from Cabin Crew. I regularly fly Spain to UK on Ryan, EasyJet, Monarch, Air Berlin, BA etc. I expect no more service than I would get on a bus or long distance coach.

I recently flew Spain to UK to San Francisco to Auckland to Christchurch to Auckland to Brisbane to Perth to Singapore to UK to Spain stopping over at all destinations cost £1300 or £130 a leg to go around the world. No doubt if I had tried and used different destinations I could have done it cheaper.

"Simples" you get what you pay for. Cheap and often not so cheerful or spend out and go First or Business.
