I have been told that Air Transat lacks the many comforts,
low & fully-disclosed fees, and general friendliness of Ryan Air.
I've never flown Air Transat, so perhaps those reports are
exaggerated.

If one believes the information available online at SeatExpert.com
or SeatGuru.com, a 31" seat pitch in ordinary Economy cabins is
not unusual for an overseas flight on a wide range of airlines
(e.g. AA, BA, KL, LH), depending upon aircraft type, by the way.
Not all aircraft seats with a given pitch are equally comfortable.
Also, many people opt for various forms of "Premium Economy"
or select particular aircraft types/configurations -- precisely
because they prefer more leg room.

I agree that minimising the set of security-checks and
immigration-steps is desirable for most travel these days.
[ For my own part, I share the weariness of the "terrorist
until proven innocent" treatment -- that I routinely receive
at Heathrow, Frankfurt, and a range of other airports
(Singapore being a notable exception). :-]
Cheers,

PS: Singapore would make a great future A/P region meeting
venue. It has outstanding international air connectivity,
a wide range of hotel options, outstanding (and affordable) food,
consistently pleasant weather, and consistently friendly
and helpful local people. :-)
