Ah, vintage air travel. This bygone era of luxurious plane rides that featured spacious seats, friendly flight attendants, and well-dressed passengers are long gone, unfortunately. Now, people are generally packed like sardines into uncomfortable planes and offered minimal services unless they’ve paid an arm and a leg for the first-class service. 

However, air travel wasn’t always like this. While we might be served a meal that looks like a microwave TV dinner on long-haul flights these days, in the 1960s, the reality was much different.

Back in these days, all passengers traveled in the same class and were essentially treated like kings. Free alcoholic drinks without a limit flowed like water from a fountain, and the food that was served doesn’t resemble today’s airplane eats in any way.

Passengers on airlines such as Sweden’s SAS were treated to gourmet seafood such as lobsters and prawns. On all airlines, hors d’oeuvres like chicken legs and delicious bruschetta were handed out like candy on Halloween night.

Looking at how people used to eat on airplanes, I think I would have booked a plane ticket only for the eating experience! What do you think?
