How this is supposed to convince the few who are supposed to pay high prices for the 3.5 senseless seats is unclear to me.
Fully agree. Call them Kaefer, DoN etc they all underestimate First Class - pity that whoever in LHG make these catering decisions does not learn from previous mistakes but properly only look (be rewarded) for the new savings achieved
