Completely agreed, I think that the general impression is that the crew actually do a good job.

In C, as full fare passenger, I am upset, but whenever I travel in economy they always live up to my expectations. They are not BA when it comes to SPA treatments etc... but then again, you would not make the same level with BA for the same amount of flights/price.
I would like to add my personal view to that. They may be inexpensive, but they are also getting 'cheap'. And that is a shame for what was once considered one of the best airlines in the world.

Anyway...back to the facts now...
