Sees this comment after news update on TV about man being arrested on Jetstar flight for opening emergency door while plane was taxing.

By the time you add luggage and food (not going to eat for 9+ hours??) it ends up not being much cheaper if at all.

In the long run it's the same cost and much more reliable to buy business class tickets. Delays cost money , having to rebook costs money, extra baggage costs money, food, lounges now cost money, having to recover from long flights with too many layovers all subtract from quality and value and cost money.

Scum passengers shit food no luggage allowance included. Its just not worth it.
