An F cabin is such that it should afford the paying pax the best flight possible. How anyone can argue that performinmg a seat demo in F, let alone any cabin for that matter, is "OK" is way beyond me. The "human feel" must come from the cabin crew not from airline training in flight!
You pay for F for a reason!
I think this is a little bit of a strange comment to make. Everyone has to learn how to do their job, it doesn't matter who you are or what you do, you have to learn, and an element of that is on the job training. I do not know to what extent you were disturbed or annoyed by the onboard training, but I would personally make some allowances for any new member of staff that I was dealing with. Even surgeons have to make their first cut (on somebody living) at some stage.
The only occasions when I might react as you have are: -
- if I am in a hurry
- if the person in question is clearly incapable (in which case a quick exit would have been appropriate)
- if I am tired and cranky and do not wish to be disturbed by anyone
We can't all be as perfect as you (and I don't work for an airline if you were wondering).
