Vomit Comet Mk 2

Just a small update on my remarks about Austrian's colour scheme for its seat headrests. I flew back from Chisinau to Vienna yesterday business class (no big deal; you get a bread roll and some ham and cheese rather than a packet of crisps) and noticed that "up front" the headrests were all a tasteful shade of light grey rather than the kaleidoscope behind.

Anybody got any thoughts about the social thinking behind this observation?

The trip back to Kiev was codeshared with Ukrainian International, thank goodness. UIA might have some old aircraft, but at least they cook a good meal for you and this one was no different. So, top tip, get the FF miles, but fly with somebody who will look after you!

  1. Perhaps the 'Technicolor' show is a demonstration by the Austrians of how vibrant, interesting and individual they really are....but they feel grey is more business like......
