Cutting edge design?
If so it’s a crime
I get, the need to streamline
To make everything compact
To reduce weight, that’s a fact
I understand that, first class gets the whizz
The smaller the space, the more the design should fizz
So why,in lower classes, on planes
Do I feel a maniac holds the reins?
Paying less, unimportant guest?
Why are the buttons for recline
On the inside of the arm, is that fine?
Unless stick thin they are hard to reach
Become a contortionist ,balance on one cheek
The remote for the screen, again on the inside is seen
Hard to wrestle out unless you are lean
Natty design the table folds away
Hard to extract and then fold up the tray
Where are the instructions for how it all works?
For us less techno savvy burkes
Even in economy plus, you need to limbo
When leaving your seat, ok if a nimbo
With little space who needs a coat hook ?
Something more useful, would be better in my book
Cutting edge design?
Please think of us sometime!
As you can tell I have flown recently and was not overjoyed by the experience…and thus inspired!
