Flew home this morning with Air Transat from London. There were small movie viewing screens placed at rather great distances above the heads of those sitting in the centre aisles; none hung from the ceilings of the window aisles.
And I remember when we booked this flight before leaving for Europe. The fares bobbed up and down like stocks on the TSE. Sometimes by cents, other times by hundreds of dollars.
It's all about the bottom line.
For the record only
