I know this may be hard to believe, given what we read on FT, but a vast, vast majority of all passengers on any long flight are in coach.
Yes, really!
Sure, I've enjoyed being upstairs on EK's A380 (23K, please), but on my own nickel I did the IST-IAD, 12 hrs, in coach. As did my family. No problems, and I'm comfortable they'll be fine when we head down under. If a 10 yr-old and teen can manage, then an adult complaining about cruelty seems hyperbolic.
