I would pay a premium ticket price to get a lay down seat at the back of the plane and have no food service in that zone. That gets rid of the food sales loss, for which I have never paid for anyway, as I’d be paying a higher ticket price. I guess at that point there is still a concern regarding a mess, since I can bring my own snacks, but it’s not like I would be getting some memory foam mattress with Egyptian cotton sheets with the way airlines would implement this anyway. I’d get a long pleather vinyl cushion with maybe a standard pillow.
It would be worse than what I got in the Navy, slightly, but still better than any shit airplane seat I’ve sat in.
This is such bullshit manipulative marketing, similar to when companies will put out an ad saying something like “ONLY $1.99/MONTH” in large, bold letters and then below it have tiny fine print saying “for the first month, then $420.69/month”.
“Free of dyes. Soft pear scent.”. Boom. Done. Not only is it short, but it’s clear and accurate. Almost nobody cares if it’s “clear” as long as it’s dye-free.
