I'd support it if they hadn't been slowly making the seats smaller to fit more in.
Its a good idea, but if people were paying what we should (for a three hour jorney £15 - $22.50) you'd be able to afford two seats easily.
Although, as I fly with my family normaly, if one of us is taking up too much space you are going to know about it. Usualy for a few weeks.

How did you arrive by that number? I'd love to fly that cheaply but I don't believe any airline would survive the first month before folding.

Some european airlines managed to get by on that before the recession. As the whole mess is because of the bankers, I stand by the rate as it was, is what it should be.

Is this true? I wouldn't have a hard time believing it, except last time we flew the seat on one of the flights still had ash trays in the arm rests. The seats seemed like the same size (wayyy to fucking small) as the other flights.
