Your Opinions Please.

Are some airlines treating their customers like idiots with the amount of seat space given? as many on here I've travelled quite a bit, we have just returned from Cyprus on a T Cook aircraft, it was like sitting on a box with no comfort / knee space, not a moan as some may think but just your opinions.

[bednobs]

was your plane full?

[ummmm]

It is a bit tight. I find it okay until you want to eat or drink something.

[TWR]

Beds, yes, but even so, the paying persons should have the space paid for not crammed in like sardines.

you get what you pay for

Thomas Cook do appear to be on the meaner end of the scale https://www.seatguru.com/charts/generalcharts.php

Don't go again, then.

lets face it, these low cost airplanes are basically buses with wings

Just out of interest was this a Monarch Airlines flight on behalf of Thomas Cook?

I find Monarch Airlines seat spacing to be very tight and decided some time ago to avoid their flights.

i quite like norwegian airlines, used them twice, mind you

If it was an honest opinion as I've requested 10.03 I would give you B.A.

[ummmm]

My last holiday I paid £107 for 2 return flights. I'll put up with a bit of discomfort for that price.

N we o Slack, it was T.Cook, normally we go JET 2, never an issue.

It was an honest answer - one has to put up with the flights or not go.

We had to fly T Cook (a Saga Holiday ) and it was very cramped especially for OH - he refuses to fly with them again. But its difficult if you are tied in to a package and as our combined ages are 171 we prefer the package deal.

People want cheap travel. That is only achieved by maximising the seating (i.e. squeezing them in) and hitting very high load factors. As an example, the Boeing 757 that is used by TC and Tui carried about 180 passengers in BA service. On holiday charters TC has 235 seats - 55 more seats or roughly 10 more seat rows. I have to say that my one and only experience with TC is one that I have no intention of repeating!
