My grandfather once said: "I'd complain if it would do any good."
Better off voting with one's feet, wallet, eyes, etc. than bothering to give the gift of feedback to a business whose attitude is shrug. But of course a writers predictably must bitch and snark as dramatically and rhetorically possible while minimizing their own credibility and squander an opportunity (opportunity cost lost) to discuss something meaningful such as the more-or-less uniform lack of leadership for net carbon reduction.
This writer cannot begin to fathom the meaning of the word "suffering", so it's worth ignoring their scrawled tantrum.
Off peak travel offers so much more value for money and health, I dont know my more don't do it, especially as the schools are shutting down.
How many parents are going to sign their kids up to online learning where a global curriculum is offered not some backward resource starved national curriculum designed to trap you in the country of your origin on the sold off council estate turned slave box estate?
Surely this will reduce the demands for peak time air travel and such articles as this because the imagination of our writers flew out of Stansted along time ago?
having the privilege of growing up with civil people in a safe place, in English, I agree with the overall sentiment that things are getting worse over institutional-corporate treatment of humans who are paying customers.
However it is worth noting that airlines are in a peculiar crunch, given the demand for the service, competition between the players and their playing field "an airport", and price.
This is hardly a "new" thing. People in airports are crazy, I think it's something in the air. It's so crazy, A&E was able to make a pretty good reality T.V. show[1] out of it way back in 2004.
Good service costs money, you shouldn't expect much when you shop around for the cheapest possible flight. It was better before the likes of Ryanair and EasyJet came along but you couldn't afford to fly off somewhere warm for the weekend on a whim.
> growing ineptitude inherent in so many of our institutions, where despite huge leaps in technology, nothing works, no one is accountable and no one cares.
People who make this argument about "growing" problems so rarely have numbers to back it up.
