You call that a SINK? I might mistakenly bend over to fetch a sip o water! lmao

And are those restrooms ADA compliant? Can a chair be rolled completely inside one and the door closed? Ave Maria...!

Single-aisle aircraft aren't required to be ADA-compliant, they are covered by ACAA (Air Carrier Access Act) I believe which is older.

It’s amazing how out of touch CEOs are. Watch Undercover Boss. Why would you not take a tour of a new plane that your airline is using?

Most of us would prefer not to look like we have had an incontinence episode.

That particular issue turned out to have a simple fix.

LOL, it looks like a prison cell toilet. I can't believe human beings actually voluntarily travel in those conditions.

This is infuriating! I cannot imagine the lavatories getting smaller than they have been. "Who" tests these, and do they actually sit on the toilets and reach back to test accessibility (to wipe)??? That's pretty bad when crew members complain of this, as if THEY weren't considered either.

Or this a brazen attempt to make sure that "big people" don't book flights anymore??? Why not just ban anyone over 150 lbs and suffer the consequences???

If it's a need to squeeze in more people.... Practically every flight I've ever taken is full to capacity. Pretty soon y'all will expect riders to sit on each others laps.
