I'd rather die than fly economy class.

I had to fly economy all the way to from JFK to LHR once (long story...don't ask me why), and I had my therapist on speed dial prior to boarding and after landing. Such an uncivilized mode of travel. Thankfully, I made it out of there alive but between the unsavory body odors, stuffy air, cramped seating, long waits getting in and out of the plane while being crowded by people breathing on my neck and scuffing up my shoes, the cheap nylon bags in the overhead being thrown up haphazardly in the console and crushing my Goyard cary on, it was just a traumatic experience. It also seems as though the people back there could use a tip in properly cleaning after themselves post-peepee. Not that anyone would (should) be surprised but First Class lavatories are so much cleaner.

What a rough experience and I am in awe at those here who can tolerate it.
