I think it depends on the destination people want to go, and usually people traveling a long distance will prefer more comfortable seats.

Big planes always have empty seats, but small planes always full of people. People care more about price instead of room for their legs.

bigger planes are necessary to ensure the safety of long flights, the extra comfort is just a bonus

There are other costs when purchasing larger planes such as maintenance, fuel, trainings. Purchase bigger planes only when there is ademand

Firstly, bigger planes mean bigger cost, not all customers are willing to pay for expensive flights. Secondly, it mostly depends on destinations. If it is a short flight, I believe most people prefer a cheaper ticket for a smaller plane. However, people are inclined to better enjoyment of bigger plane if it is a 10 hours’ flight.

I flew on China Airlines this summer which has downsized their plane sizes despite being such a long flight. Should they use big planes then

Not everyone is willing to pay for extra leg room because bigger planes means the airline will charge more for a ticket

Any decision that the managers make must benefit the business or the company. So good ethics are assets for companies.

Encourage business students not to trick the customers to make more profits ignoring ethics.

We should only encourage students to develop their ideas in business instead of brain washing them to believe in a certain set of ethics.

Rather than trying to teach something, emphasizing that business isn’t just about the profit seems to be a possible way of training ethic.

We learned that only focusing on numbers and data makes it much easier to overlook the ethics and morality.

@ziyuehandennie Good ethical decisions do not negatively affect a business and holding good ethics draws positive attention from the public
