As for Ryanair's stance - it was nothing about the customer, only O'Leary's profits.
I've been sending that message to my carriers/hotels: continued harassment = no more spend.

Whether they choose to view it from a customer point of view (prefered) or a financial point of view doesn't matter too much to me as long as the airlines get the message and get on the government's case.

I'd rather get the government out of airline security almost entirely.
