Default Tiger Air Flights OK

I took them as I remember Bangkok to Angeles City (Clark) via Singapore. They were fine like all of the budget airlines like Air Asia and Cebu Pacific. Expect to get charged for everything.

The airlines are thinking about charging even to go to the bathroom. Yup, makes sense, you take out one bathroom you can put in two more seats and you don't need to carry as much water for flushing and washing hands. The idea on short flights you go before you get on the plane, or you pay extra for the convience. If a plane is takeing off and landing 10 times a day, which a lot of these short hop planes are doing and you get a $100 a flight that is more than $2000 dollars a day per plane! not counting the fuel saving for the water you will not be carring.

If they do start charging will they start handing out free drinks in the waiting areas? Wouldn't put it past the bean counters!
