It was not good. As soon as we entered the plane, 2 girls in front of us bend their seats down completely and startes sleeping within the next 2 minutes. I asked one of the air hostess to ask the girls to make them sit straight because we just entered the plane and we wanted to sit properly put our seat belts etc. The air hostess replied to me in the EK 009 plane that it's her right she can bend it but when we take off, she will have to straighten her seat. She never did because the air hostess never told her. The girls left their seats bent down and I had to intervene to ask them to straighten their seats because we had to eat. The girls kept telling us to please eat fast so they can bend down. What rubbish is this. Pressure to eat for their comfort and our discomfort.

A high-altitude cruise uses significantly less fuel than the long process of descent, all the taxiing and most especially at take-off, which is the only time during any flight that the engines operate at maximum thrust. Most of the one-stop flights are operated by Qatar Airways, which make a single stopover at Doha Airport.

Wide-body jets that can accommodate more passengers also help to reduce the overall number of flights. You can take your own water with you, in a reusable gym bottle, rather than accept any of the small mineral water plastic bottles you’ll be offered. Leaving from South African will also allow you to help offset your carbon footprint before you fly, by buying and planting a "spekboom" plant before you leave. These plants are found across the country and together recycle 10 times more carbon than the entire Amazon.
