i can see how someone would over react. The bottom line for airlines is profit. Seats getting cheaper looking, trying to fit more ʻpassengers in.ʻ I can easily see how someone finally says - enough is enough. Charging for blankets? I have seen children freeze on airplanes- absolutely no compassion these days. I fly a lot - and american airlines (not the airline but USA) are the worst, the cheapest - Really bad. So the guy gets upset. So what.... It is an outrage to charge.
