MODERATORS
Flying was a much different experience before deregulation.
Back then, there were stringent price floors on tickets, so airlines couldn't lower prices to compete with each other. Instead, they had to compete on service, which typically included lavish meals.
That said, all airline tickets were typically priced as first class tickets today, so a lot of people didn't fly regularly.
