      That’s the problem. Most airlines lie to you and deceive economy class (lower, working class) people into thinking they can afford a flight to an exotic destination with sun kissed beaches, and beautiful landscapes, or that they will be treated to a luxury lifestyle in economy class instead of dealing with screaming babies and cramped seats.
      This airline gives you reality.
