Liking and disliking

Verbs and nouns

These people are talking about their favourite airlines.
I think Globe Air are pretty good. You can state your preference for a special low fat menu, or seafood or vegetarian. They have great in-flight entertainment too – they try to cater for everyone’s tastes. They seem to take pride in their service.
I do a lot of long-distance flying and I don’t relish the thought1 of a twelve-hour flight with no leg-room, so I usually fly with Arrow. They give you a lot of space, even in economy. And they seem to take pleasure in looking after you.
I think most people take offence2 if they’re just treated like a number. I have no sympathy for airlines that lose customers because they’re too lazy to give them a warm welcome when they step on board. Visa Airlines are always very friendly.


1 don’t like to think that it is going to happen
2 become upset because someone has insulted or disrespected them
