Something is in the Air - the service of many airlines is getting worse!

After Lufthansa had long been on the decline in terms of service, they have finally managed to distribute only one bottle of water on flights and sell the rest. All food is no longer produced by Lufthansa which might be even better.
The really cheap airlines now top it again by forcing the staff to sell more. This allows to annoy the guest even more.
"As the aviation portals" aviation.direct "and" aerotelegraph "report, the management accuses the employees in a letter of, among other things," inability and lack of self-motivation ".
The management announced that there will be investigations in the future if nothing is sold on a flight within 15 minutes. They also don't want to accept apologies. "I will not accept any justification like 'the passengers slept' or 'the passengers were not willing to buy' or 'the passengers had their own food'", "aerotelegraph" quotes from the letter.
