Confirms that it was indeed WN who started the race to the bottom, attempting to convince people that there is no need for comfort and amenities when traveling, price is all that matters.

I am happy if you are happy, but it has been more than one year since I have had to step foot on a WN plane, with any luck will never have to again.
