Probably right actually. Anything is better than that.
I know it's not long-haul but I remember about a year and a bit ago Ryanair had a new quiet and dark cabin policy on early AM flights. It was glorious. They put the lights on dim for the cabin trolley run and they fixed little battery powered desk lamps to the trolley. It's moot during the summer of course, but those dark winter mornings on the 6am flight are hell without the policy. You have to try and fall fast asleep during taxi and take off when the lights are out so you don't get woken up by the fire of a thousand blue and yellow suns when they flick the lights on like a camp kommandant.
