From experience a lot people hate changing plane
Odd that much lauded middle eastern carriers are doing so well then. Their entire business model is based on punters changing planes

there is the type who will fly a sector from uk to europethen change to another plane and fly 8-14 hours (asia)....... while another group will take the middle eastern airlines and fly 7 hours each sector.

If they had the ultimate choice like CX doing a non stop then i know people will get on that plane rather the first two options.

as for your quote...... im one of them. i dont like a 12 hour flight or can i stand a non stop flight....... i'd prefer to break my flight with a stop half way, have a walk, some food and check my emails...... and something like PPRune..... lol.

but saying this with the new travel tax...... a short hop then another flight is the way forward......... catching a non stop flight will add the maximum tax on it............. kinda killed it off.

Time to shut up now....... laws of the game has changed
