OK understand, then just buy a ticket from EZY or BA. If you don't want the FR hassle, vote with your feet and take your business elsewhere. But if you decide to remain and buy a FR ticket then I think we all know it can present a set of challenges.
It's like the guy who bangs on about government policies but when it comes to a general election he decides not to vote. People who don't vote then bang on about government policy have no argument.
Similarly people who buy a FR ticket for peanuts then bang on about trivial matters have no argument.
It's a bloody short haul flight. You hop on. You hop off. It's really that simple. Don't expect Etihad style in flight services when you buy a low cost ticket. As I say, if you don't like the FR approach then move your business, nobody is putting the gun to people's heads. People need to quit moaning and take control.
