Airlines suck

[Martinus]

It's fucking annoying that when you buy a plane ticket and then want someone else to use it, you cannot do that. You have to return the ticket (and they pay you back only a small part of the price) and the other person has to buy it again at a full price.

Fuck that shit. It's a fucking violation of consumer rights.

Buy refundable tickets.

Yep, airline tickets are basically a contract with many terms and conditions that you will travel a certain route at a certain time, they are not a permit for the bearer to travel. Only the full-price ones are transferable or fully refundable, which can cost more than buying two.

Just give him the money directly FFS. Sugar daddying doesn't have to be complicated.

I hate Ryanair.

I'm increasingly miffed by the trend to charge extra for emergency exit seats. For me the legroom isn't a luxury, and £30 each way for early seat booking is a big wodge of cash. If you're going to charge me extra for being tall, then it's only fair I also get a discount for being a very light traveller.

The problem with exit row seats is that you don't have an entertainment system in front of you.  My legs are on the long side as well, but I actually prefer angling my legs a little rather than be bored out of my mind.  Maybe our tall posters with an ampler posterior don't have that option.

You can still see the map right?

I can, if I bring a paper map with me.

I don't even like exit row seats. I like keeping my bag down with me.

As a lawyer, you should know to read the fineprint. It's not like there aren't booking classes that allow you to get the ticket refunded.

Yeah, that's another big inconvenience.  Yet another one is that you're sitting in front of all the aisle traffic, rather than being covered by seats in front of you.

Of course, there are nicer airlines like SW that allow you to get a credit that you can then apply to someone else's trip.  My family did it all the time.

You're allowed to have your bag down with you after takeoff but before landing, aren't you?

I think so. Although I believe t But now with the charges - there's no chance I'll ever be in an exit row.

edit: Actually I don't know as I know there are often big on having the walkways clear - especially when the fasten seat belt sign is on.
