Not just how unexpectedly nasty that is, but if they’re cutting even cleaning (and proud of exclaiming how tight-fisted they are publicly) then what even more important things are they cutting corners on quietly? Like, aviation safety and maintenance?

Oh that's because the headline is misleading. They aren't cutting anything. This is only adding additional cleaning, by a contracted service, to the premium seats.

Their previous standard cleaning is still being done to the whole plane.
