more open to various forms of travelers than now.
I'll take improved safety over perks any day but I've seen enough videos lately of people on flights and in airports being absolute jackasses that it makes me wish we could go back in time.

What’s that thing in the bottom right corner of the pic, though? A turkey breast? I can’t figure it out.
Maybe some kinda Baked Alaska thing. Who the hell knows?
Gotta be some kind of dessert/pastry with the berries as garnishments

I'm going with Orca heart imported from British Columbia. Highly illegal but delicious nonetheless.

There is like 4 windows per seat. Quick research says it's an Air France flight. Must be the upper deck of a 747. So better than first class.

I fly international 5-6 times per year on business. Average $17-18k per round trip. I've already made delta diamond for 2025. I'm spoiled as frick and don't know if I'll ever be able to go back to genpop for an international flight.

That pic was taken in 1988. Boomers were reaching the age of 42 years old, and air travel was at its pinnacle. We built that
Its all gone to crap with the succeeding generations. All they want is the fame and privilege that comes with hard work. Without the work

Yep. I guess people just don't like having choices. You can have a great first class experience or a shitty one based on how much u wanna spend

I flew 1st class to Tokyo in 1989 and it looked nothing like that. Was it good, oh ya, was in air 20 hrs. Dallas to narita, food looked nothing like that but was good. Booze was better, got drunk, sobered up and got half drunk again before japan :) never flown first class since

It is amazing what Americans throw their money at while complaining about how expensive it is.

I flew Singapore Air last year for the first time and my oh my were the flight attendants lovely.. im talking, each one was more sexy than the one that had just walked by before .
Then i had to connect to a United flight and the difference was STARK .. these fugly old stewardesses were so depressing by comparison .

Very few people actually purchase first class tickets, especially international, with their own money. There's a reason it's called business class. Businesses purchase most of those tickets for their employees or people use points/status to get there.
Airlines are so in bed with credit card companies that they're basically a bank for the credit card companies at this point.

And a perk of the employee assuming they get to keep the miles.
I consider it part of my compensation package.
