    They used to be also fascinated by plastic.

    I bet their smiles would not last long realizing that the 5g bag of pretzels has 2g of plastic (and that’s just the tip of the plastiberg).

    Good old airlines and their ideal business model:

    Charge you like you’re flying on Concorde.

    Treat you like you’re on a 16th century slaving ship.

    Yeah but at least the quality of service has went from smiling attractive courteous flight attendants to snarling aisle donkeys.

    As far as I know, economy seats are still sold at a loss. They make up for it in the higher classes.

    prices are higher, quality is lower.

    I don’t usually want to eat too much on flights. Especially with the toilet situation being what it is.

    I mean, in the 1950’s, the planes with all the fancy food and service were basically full first class flights… to return to that weed have to have single class/first class flights and the prices to match.
