I used to love air travel. It was so exciting to board a plane and roar off into the blue. The airlines treated you like royalty with meal choices and free drinks. Your friends or family could see you off right at the gate and meet you there, too. People dressed up to travel and checked their bags with Red Caps. Shoot, I’m old enough to remember when you could even smoke on planes, though I’m glad that changed.
Now people wear pajamas and flip-flops and bring fast-food meals with them. They compete for overhead bins and flow over their arm rests into my seat. I’m lucky to get a bag of peanuts thrown at me and a drink costs $10.
