It would be a hell of a lot more pleasant for sure, and also a hell of a lot more expensive. Remember the term "jet set"? Remember *why* that term was used to refer to the leisure rich? Personally I'd rather have today's craptastic air travel than go back to top-class service which I can't ever afford to have. Quite. One has to wonder how a high priced airline would fare in today's market of Expedia and Orbitz and people shopping to knock off a few dollars off their ticket price. No need to wonder, just watch the smaller airlines which cut amenities to the absolute bone totally eat the majors alive. For people who like the amenities, just fly first class. You still get stellar treatment (or so I'm told) and it's probably still cheaper than flying was in this bygone era people seem to be so nostalgic for. -- Michael Ash Rogue Amoeba Software |
