I was shock he said that. Back in AN days the "classification" system
weren't that obvious. People in coach class/holiday class can wonder
around 1st class lounge and people in 1st class can go to buffet car to
buy snack, usually buffet car attached benhind coach class, which means
you have to walk through coach to get there, I never met any low life
drunk!

People have the right to choice which class to travel. Those who choice
in holiday/coach class doesn't means they are poor, some prefer to
spent more money at the destination rather then getting there and some
simply trying out coach/holiday class.
