6. As one who flew quite a bit before deregulation

Edited on Mon Dec-27-04 08:31 PM by Lydia Leftcoast

I can state with certainty that the flying experience has been deteriorating steadily since then.

Even the distinguishing features among carriers (good meals on Alaska, good leg room on American) have been or are being phased out. These days, it's cattle car all the way.

I would pay a couple hundred dollars more for better seats and better service, but not the huge amounts it takes to fly first class (which is only as good as coach class used to be).
