I just got off an Estrella Roja bus from the Mexico City airport. Believe me, the bus was far superior in every sense... Legroom for days, comfortable cushy seats, no middle seats, inexpensive, on-time....
In any event, I think the pilot was being pretty condescending to the people who are making his job a reality. As well as being a representative of the company (one of several) that are responsible for the conditions on aircraft these days that at least add to the likelihood that someone is going to snap.
