I read an article today about the changing roles of flight attendants and one the things said, was that it is no longer a glamour job!<br /><br />Ange and Andy, please don't be jealous!

Sadly, we think that they will not as price seems to be such a prime driver in the airline businss these days. But, of course, there is the positive side that so many, many more people can now afford to fly who would not have been able to do so in the 1960s.<br /><br />Perhaps, as you say, the programme will bring a new Pan Am revival and, who knows, there may just be the realisation that there are people still prepared to pay extra for a civilised experience and a little of the old style!Jane and Lance Hattatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831890261259302647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2922868706165678396.post-29502640127756534012011-08-21T02:51:28.813-04:002011-08-21T02:51:28.813-04:00One could call it American glamour, with even JKF ...One could call it American glamour, with even JKF wearing the garment.

Today, all you get is drinks and pretzels when traveling coach.. Ha, even when flying business or first in a domestic flight here in the US, all they give you is free liquor..
