The Duck Shoot

On short haul flights of one or two hours it is possibly acceptable and bearable to increase seating to a level where passenger require lubrication to slip into their seats. (Actually it’s not but for the purposes of this article I’ll give the short haul airlines a little slack.)

Long haul flights are a different matter. To get to distant lands on holiday or business we have no other choice as distance and time are against travelling by bus, train or ship.
