Men wore coats and ties, women wore hats and gloves, it was a luxury to travel. SouthWest Airlines turned it into Greyhound bus service, and the rest is history. Pull on your cutoffs and flip-flops and go. I spent 30 years in the cockpit, it’s all gone now.

Does make one wonder what happened to civilized society.

Did I just see normal human beings seated in the passenger compartment? Not the raving lunatics that are out there today. Why did they ever shut down the mental hospitals? The worse mistake they ever made.

The bottom line and bad management ruined the airlines. 1978 the year that ruined american carriers

I could not agree with you more on how nice it used to be. I have been flying as a passenger since 1959. The old days are gone. Today, if it ain’t Boeing I ain’t going and if South West does’nt got there I don’t go there. Period!
