Returning with me on a BA B767 to LHR from a conference in Berlin,
my girl-friend was a bit miffed to discover that her seat had no
foot-rest. (She is somewhat vertically challenged, and finds that
having her feet dangling several inches from the floor does
little to add to the comfort of flying.)
Thinking she had a defective seat, I did a quick check. All the
middle seats in the centre block were minus foot-rest. All other
seats had one. (We're talking economy class here!)
Can anyone shed any light on this bizarre design decision?
