Much as I'd like to be impressed

I'm afraid it just demonstrates the 'brick wall' aircraft design has hit. You still reach the same destinations at much the same speed in a more-cramped cabin. The only advantage I can see is that the longer range means you can have less stopovers, but for most routes it seems to be much the same now as 50 years ago. I guess it is cheaper, but oh how I wish it was faster!
