Sure, but AA place quite a high price on civility and general humane treatment. The way I work it out, it comes to:
80 hours of niceness a year towards me
== the price of a decent new car every year == the cost of employing a pretty good software engineer for a month. And all I want is food I can eat, a couple of glasses of wine, space to open the laptop even if the guy in front reclines his seat and a guarantee of a power outlet. OK, maybe politeness would be good.
