The Economy Class cabin of the 747 in the 60’s is worth the price alone. It shows you how much room has been lost in the name of profits and efficiency since the ‘60’s.

The only quibble I have with that picture is the first commercial flight of the 747 was in 1970. Otherwise, a great picture, you’re right about the room.

Didn't tickets cost about twice as much back then?

Considering the 747 didn’t fly till 1970, it must have been some ticket!

How many seats are there across on a 747 now? At least, one more.

You mean the competition that makes flying more common than taking a bus?
