Flying – How much less romantic can it get?
If you ask many airline veterans when the golden age of flying was – many will point to the 1960s and 1970s when it was deemed glamourous to travel on jet airlines.
Wide open spaces in the airports, smiling handsome check-in staff and (even more) attractive cabin crew. Security check consisted of a smile, a look at your ticket and the occasional glance in your handbag. The only part of your passenger-journey that rose your blood-pressure was immigration, when many of the officers were trained to intimidate and make one feel uncomfortable.
