My airline has premium economy class - like a posher economy class with the same meals as business class, a separate cabin, bigger seats and more legroom etc
Unfortunately the passengers to be rather hard work - because they are "premium" passengers they think they are basically business class passengers but they are souped up economy class.
This woman on my last flight was a typical example. She got on with a smug smile and was telling her husband to look at the poor people in economy.
The whole flight was basically her, being entitled whining "but I'M PREMIUM" in refusal to anything. She wanted a hot breakfast not just a bacon roll and a yogurt as she could she the crew in the galley serving up - for business. She announced loudly she was going to take a walk to stretch her legs but had to walk through the "plebs" in economy. I refused to let her walk through business class -technically speaking passengers aren't allowed to just wander through the actual premium cabins.
Beef or chicken wasn't a good enough option, she wanted a starter and fish. She wanted champagne and port and cheese and biscuits. If a passenger is nice I will try and do what I can. She was just rude so she got nothing extra.
Just annoying, rude and patronising for 12 hours.
At one point she came to the galley and watched me tidy up and put things away
Her: "Oh my God, what a job, having to clean up, I would hate your job"
Me *Big smile* "It's all part of the job, I like getting everything tidy
Why would you say that to someone at work?
To make herself seem superior?
When she got off the plane she was all sneery to me, "well you did okay I suppose but you are't like those girls from Singapore Airlines are you?" and off she went. I bumped into her at baggage claim where she was moaning the crew's bags were waiting for them and hers wasn't there yet. I glared at her and I'm afraid I was a bit childish as she moved over to ask me a question and I turned around and walked off.
