This is the same programme that had a former BA hostie set up several of her former colleagues in the interest of progressing her media career.

Whilst I am no fan of Ryanair I expect this programme will be the sort of ‘shocking’ journalism that we are used to seeing in the tabloid press.

anyone guess the aircraft in the background? 😉

Delta 767? I’m not even sure if DL fly into MAN!

Watch out for the galleys wobbling about in turbulence. That freaked me out a bit!

That’s normal on lots of aircraft types, it’s just more noticeable on some (especially widebodies) than others.

It’s usually an optical illusion caused by ceiling panels which aren’t rigidly fixed moving around next to galley units which are. Often during take off and landing the same effect makes it look as though the overhead lockers are moving.

On some aircraft types the galley units are attached at the floor only so there is some movement of the unit at ceiling height.

As you say infants on laps do have to sit in certain places, but the particular place depends on aircraft type.

There are extra masks in certain seat rows dependant on the aircraft type. On some it’s a particular side of the cabin, on others it’s alternative rows and on some there are extra masks everywhere. There is also an extra mask in each toilet to allow for people with babies/children or people helping anyone taken ill (or mile-highers!).

As you say infants cannot sit in exit rows, bulkheads are allocated as far as the aircraft type and passenger load allows, after that normal seat rows are allocated in the normal way. My own company tries to block seats next to infants if there are vacant seats in the cabin.

The computers used at check-in actually monitor the seats allocated to those with infants (among other things) and the final check that they are sitting in the right place is the cabin crew onboard.

As for your comments about getting in and out of seat rows, aircraft cabin space is very valuable so there’s not much that can be done about that. But with a helping hand it doesn’t usually prove too difficult.

The guy is in Lagos so anything is possible. I suspect you’d never recieve anything at all!

They should have Wingmirrors if they are reversing back of stand 😀

Like the one on the trislander maybe?

As Richard Branson once said…

“How do you become a millionaire? Start off as a multi-millionaire then set up an airline.”

Personally I’d probably buy a boat.

I’m not sure how giving web check-in passengers priority boarding ” will also eliminate boarding gate queues”

Doesn’t it just mean you would be at the front of the queue, while those who had the cheek to check-in a bag would be stuck at the back.

As by738 says just watch the handluggage grow.
