Devil's in the details, but it's the details they always leave out that matter most. I worked on airline accounts before. Airlines like to live in their own little worlds and not have any interference.
For instance, we don't see dear traveler being cattle-prodded through Heathrow, and arriving to his flight barely on time, sweaty and angry. They ignore completely the indifferent service one receives from more than half the flight attendants. And they certainly don't bring up the fact they tend to lose baggage, furhter enraging the consumer. They only concentrate on the experience inside the cabin because it's all they control. But even that is a slight of hand.
Because if you notice, apparently the only time a passenger has a good time in the cabin is when he's either A. stuffing sweets in his mouth whilst watching a movie or B. Unconscious. That tells me everything I really need to know.
