The scheduling of the flight and how long it took to get to our destination was the only good thing. Food was pretty much inedible. Of the 4 seats we had only 1 entertainment system worked. In a 3 3 3 seating configuration the controls for the 2 outside seats were switched. So control panel for seat A controlled seat C monitor. And the touch screen didn't work. As an airline you have control over your schedule. Leaving 1.5 hours for transfer is stupid. First as passengers we are hurried our entire time making this a stressful moment. 2nd there is revenue to be made by allowing a slightly longer layover. I did want to buy some coffee but as I was the last on the flight that was not possible. We were literally running. I did want to upgrade to business class. But was given the run around. The time it took to get to my final destination is the ONLY saving grace.
