Recent advances in air travel have focused only on those sitting in first class and have left other passengers with no benefits. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Nowadays, travelling

first

-

class

in aeroplanes is considered a status symbol. People who travel by

first

-

class

get a lot of attention and facilities;

however

, other

travellers

have been left with no perks. In my opinion, I completely agree with the statement.

This

essay will discuss few

such

discriminations along with examples.

Firstly

, as per the recent changes, they have not changed the size of the aeroplane but have rearranged the sitting placement. In the majority of the air-crafts, economy

class

travellers

complain about cramped up leg space. Whereas,

First

class

seats

has increased the distance between 2 chairs to boost the comfort.

For example

, as per the recent report, the average gap between economy

class

seats

is 1 foot; while the average space between

first

-

class

seats

is 3 feet.

This

shows that the new advancement in air travel is biased towards

first

-

class

passengers.

Secondly

, in recent times most airlines have changed their policy towards the consumption of food and drinks. A passenger who opts out for

first

-

class

is only offered

this

service free of cost. Rest

travellers

have to shell extra money to avail the same service.

For instance

, after the new policy, Indigo airlines have stopped offering packaged food items to the economy

class

which earlier they used to offer. The service remains unchanged for the

first

-

class

tier. To conclude, despite paying expensive airfare, the benefits are offered to only ones who travels from

first

class

. There is a major mismatch when it comes to offering benefits to different

class

travellers

. Less distance between 2

seats

and the additional charge for eatables are examples of

this

argument.

Therefore

, I completely agree that air travel is completely focused on

first

class

.
