    Some dick was actually so outraged at being subjected to the sight of poorer passengers on their flight that they wrote an article about. Take a bow, dick, take a bow. #inequalitypic.twitter.com/FWjTAYEjU4

        He’d better not fly SAS Plus then, there’s pretty much no difference except lemon soaked napkins

        SAS Plus? Is that being given a parachute and jumping out?

        Yeah, means they don’t have to land at the destination airport, can cover multiple destinations per flight

        Whatever you do don’t let easyJet hear you say that. They may take it as a serious suggestion.

        Business travellers are paying triple price for travel privileges and the feeling of privilege. Offering actual privileges can be expensive (fewer seats means fewer passengers), but making them feel privileged can be cheap, like in this case a tattered curtain.

        Well, if the Brits are doing this 👇🏻to their homeless people, is it any wonder, he'd be outraged at being forced to see the "peasants" in economy class, if only for a few seconds until he finds his seat and then gives them his back....https://twitter.com/fastcoideas/status/944759539697676288 …

        To be fair it also offers some degree of sound deadening - but I’ve never seen the point of “business class” on domestic or short haul flights, with or without a curtain!

        I am so relieved to read that this person won't be put off from using this service again. Clearly they are made of the right stuff.
