Re-regulate the airlines and bring back old-school Pan Am.

Time to bring back the elegance of air travel. Relegate the pajama-wearing caliber clientele to Southwest.

Time to bring back the elegance of air travel

One of my favorite memes is a couple in coach, about 1955 or so. White table cloth. Full meal. Man in a suit. Woman in a dress wearing white gloves. Very "posh".

The caption is "If this is how travel is now, I can only imagine it 70 years from now!!"

They’d have to have a no-class section with aisle urinals for a lot of American filth.

I don’t think they can make it.

Would Americans pay $4k to fly across country?

Interesting aside, I bought some bread the other day from a side of the road shop. Made in someone’s house, the old fashioned way. $15.

I couldn’t believe it. I think our quality of life in America is very low; I don’t think we even know it. The bread we eat is garbage, that’s why its only $5.

Same with our air travel. We are being robbed across the board, and it’s bad.
