Very impersonal 2nd rate service in economy
Just got back from Dubai flying the new Airbus 380. Economy has 399 seats. The flight attendants, all well under 30-years-old, treated passengers with the most impersonal service I have ever witnessed. No smiles. No hello's or chatting. It was rather painful to watch and experience. Yes, they were efficient. I give them that. But I never felt like cattle before in my life.
Also, the flight attendant dinners came from Business Class. They ate these wonderful dinners in front of economy passengers who just finished their lousy economy dinners. Some of the worst food I have eaten on a plane. Pizza tasted like cardboard. Water and juice glasses were always served less than half-filled. Soft drinks served in 6 ounce cans. I watched the flight attendants drink their liquids from personal mugs, not tiny cups like passengers got.
