What you would like from an airline?

Options
Hi

I'm conducting a bit of research and would like your views.

If money was no object and you were flying in a premium cabin on an airline what sort of services would you like to have??

I'll be grateful of any ideas you may have.

thanks

    well, i know some US airlines already offer it, and some other airlines are considering, but Internet Access while in the air would be great.

    actually, i'd like that in economy as well as a premium cabin.
  • Thanks for your input!

    If you've ever been flying somwhere and thought: I wish they had...*blah*

    Nomatter how extreme/infeasible it may seem...e.g if you have been travelling with children and wished for an onboard creche...

    let me know!!

    Thanks
  • The only thing i ever want from an airline is leg room on long haul, I am 5ft 9, and on a flight to new york nearly had my knees to my chest cos the inconsiderate git in front kept putting his seat back. The hostess asked him repeatedly to straighten his seat cos she could see I was uncomfortable and was ignored.
    I can put up with bad food, service, movies etc if I can have a liitle room to move

    Actually, what would be nice is if they had coffee shop/bar type area like they have/had in first class in the upstairs of a jumbo. Would be brilliant to have somewhere on a long haul flight where you didn't have to drink from a plastic cup and talk to people whilst sitting in a row.

    room and politeness. and preferably a good take off and landing.

    and if I can't have room, just politeness. I've always found easyjet good for this. Virgin also. BA less so. Just from my experiences.
    Remember the time he ate my goldfish? And you lied and said I never had goldfish. Then why did I have the bowl Bart? Why did I have the bowl?

    How about a camera on the bottom of the plane so you can see what your flying over?? I know there would be lots of problems with this but you said ANYTHING LOL.

    A few possible problems would be cloud coverage. If its very cloudy you wouldn't be able to see anything. Also if you were flying over area's that aren't allowed to be filmed etc... you might run into problems.

    Would still be sweet though =)



    EDIT: Or, a camera on the nose of the plane so you could see infront of the plane. That'd also be sweet :)

    Sri Lankan and Emirates to name but two have forward and downward cameras on the aircraft that you can watch during the flight (NB: those of a nervous disposition should not watch the foward camera whilst landing in Male :rotfl:)
