Advantages: Friendly cabin staff

Disadvantages: everything else

I have just returned from Turkey flying with Thomas Cook airlines, I am 6`2" and have never been so uncomfortable in my life, There is no leg room , My knees were wedged against the seat in front for 4.5 hours it was a real endurance test. In fact if they ever need a new endurance test for that Japanese game show "Endurance" Where contestants have to find different ways to torture themselves ,then flying Thomas Cook would be a good way to go. Talk about a flying cattle truck, some people on my flight stood in the aisle all the way because they couldn`t sit in the seats. Even my partner who is only 5`4" was uncomfortable and had swollen feet due to the fact she couldn`t move her legs. In these days when DVT and blood clots are a major health concern amongst fliers shouldn`t we have leg room to perform the various exercises that the inflight video recommends we do? Come on Thomas Cook don`t be so greedy and take a couple of rows of seats out so we can all have a decent level of comfort.
A great holiday marred by substandard flight conditions

Summary: greed over comfort , A bus would be more comfortable
