For many people, the connotation of flying economy class sends shivers down the spine. Economy class may be the step daughter of the airline industry; however it is responsible for the majority of travelers and for most people is perfectly fine and quite comfortable.
For most people, it isn’t worth paying hundreds of dollars more to have a better meal or a leather seat. Many people who fly economy wouldn’t be able to fly unless the fares are low enough and although economy class is usually seen as sub par, it is mainly a gimmick so that people pay a lot extra for some extra refinements.
Economy class does have its low points though, it usually has the least amount of room and this should definitely be a consideration if you are extra tall or weigh a lot. Most seats in economy class are usually the least comfortable and covered in cloth. However, if you are only flying for a few hours, it should be more than fine. There are plenty of chairs in most people’s living rooms less comfortable than economy airline seating.
If you are looking for a great airline fare and aren’t that choosy on amenities, economy class is usually a great way to fly.
