Maybe all these problems can be linked to the fact that the maintenance is outsourced to the lowest bidder with the cheapest labor.
Sure ticket prices are through the roof. Yes all that money buys you less and less service.
So as you sit back trying to get comfortable, without a pillow, knowing there will be no meal. You can be confident knowing the maintenance was done by an unregulated shop in some far away country. The mechanic might not have spoken English. He may have been drinking or on drugs. But rest assured he was very cheap for the airline. Enjoy your flight.
