The most ludicrous argument was linking airline profitability to YQ. Yeah the YQ on a handful of seats per plane will swing any airline to profitability. Somehow they all managed to eke a life till YQ was introduced this past decade.
Yes I agree. There is a school of thought that YQ at BA is "OK". Matter of fact some say if you don't like it, fly another airline.

If someone does an opinion poll, I am sure a majority of the flying public will say No to ideas of YQs!
