You still got 3 checked bags and paid a lot more at that time. Flying used to be for the wealthy.
Ashtrays in the armrests because you could SMOKE!
Every year I would go to the Indy 500 and I had a totes bag that would hold 2 dozen White Castles. I’d stop and buy on my way to the airport and check the bag. (Too smelly to carry on.)
When they started to charge for check I had to settle for frozen W.C. burgers!
