Europeans May Have Their Freedom But Their Domestic Business Class Sucks

There's a lot to feel frustrated about Down Under. We had an early lead in the race to get over COVID-19. Now squandered. We could travel domestically. Not anymore. We haven't had the ability to travel internationally for some time. And it's still not likely to return any time soon.

But if all this talk of Delta is getting you down, allow us to take the sheen off some of the FOMO you've been seeing in Europe just a little: Europeans may have more freedom of movement than us right now, but their domestic business class still sucks.

He also posted a video in an exit row economy seat with the caption: "More legroom than business" [watch below].

No one, anywhere, though, has a bar on this "lost era of business class" from the 80s...
