Passengers on Russian tourist flight forced to stand due to lack of seats

[cesarnc]

Oh, the day is coming man... The day is coming when we will ride planes like in a bus.

"A Russian tourist plane had ‘standing room only’ as it took off from a busy tourist airport because there were not enough seats for all the passengers.

Six adults had no seats on the overcrowded Boeing jet as it took off from Antalya airport in Turkey, used by thousands of Britons each week.

These passengers did not have oxygen masks or life vests on the overcrowded jet, said reports in Moscow. "

And I'm from the time we did 2 hours flight in a 767 carring, say, 25 people only. Mr. Johnnie Waker saying hello right after takeoff, and pleasant meal with the Brazilian shore by my window....

I won't be flying that airline, I'd be upset too after paying to stand my entire flight! I 'd probably just get off the plane then sue the airlines.

Well if that should happen in the good ol USA we would have the FAA and the NTSB all over the airline and then it would be a call to lawyers and we would have one mean mess to deal with. I am thankful there were no accidents due to overloading the plane.
