Across space and time
Remarkable! In the world of modern civil aviation, it is always a pleasure when there are just two people sitting in a row of three seats. Even more unusual is getting a row of three seats to yourself. So I have to go back some years to board a plane where I could choose a seat with no-one sitting in the other 8 seats across the aisles; no-one sitting in the 9 seat row in front of me and just one person in the 9 seat row behind. In fact there were just 11 passengers in the c100 seat Economy Cabin of UA5 from IAH Houston to LHR London Heathrow. Result!!!
Ironically, the 'sharp end' looked rather full in quite a large Business Class area. Also the Economy Plus cabin to which airlines now always try to get you to pay extra, was about 75% full.
