That's great for you! But why?
Because the day something goes wrong, then I f
k up all the savings.
As a frequent traveller (around 100-150 sectors per year) something can go wrong, it is statistic!
We are now in June and I have already experienced two disruptions (apart from those caused by the volcanic ash).
In both cases airlines handled them perfectly (or hassle free for me, if you like) and in one case they even exceeded my expectations with a double upgrade.
I made myself a promise last year when I decided not to use Low Cost carriers anymore unless I did not have a choice (which also includes the choice not to fly/travel!).
