Excel airways legroom

> Business class is not available

If it's not available, that is because there isn't sufficient demand for it.
If lots of people were willing to pay many times more money for the flights
to get that extra legroom, they'd be happy to oblige and take your money.
And really, unless you're 7 foot tall you must have a very strange posture
to get your knees jammed into the seats infront of you. It's not an ideal
size, we could all do with a bit more space, but it's sufficient for
everyone else.

Ah, that would be scum class then...

Pete S. Emirates business class passenger. A seat that fits and food I
can eat and a realistic luggage allowance. And a limo to the airport.

Doesn't that confirm my first point and we ought tell the airline that, or
are you one of those people who believe their lot is entirely in the hands
of some great anonymous unknown, which must be obeyed without question?
