Flights in the 1950s became very popular. This decade has become known as the “Golden Age” of flying. It was a time of glamorous air hostesses, gourmet meals, smoking was allowed and there was plenty of legroom for all. So, what would your trip in ’50 and ’60 be like?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Very Expensive<\/h4>\n\n\n\n Elizabeth Taylor boards a plane for Hollywood in 1958<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
According to a TWA brochure from 1955, a round-trip ticket from Chicago to Phoenix cost $138, which was a good deal. If we account for inflation, though, the trip cost about $1,200 in today’s money. Depending on the route, it was up to five times as expensive to fly in the Golden Age. And International travel, was so expensive, only a few could afford it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You don`t have to go through security<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nThe lines were almost the same as today<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
There were no security checkpoints slowing things down, so getting through the airport was pleasant and easy. You could show up at the airport just half an hour before your flight and walk right onto the plane. On the other hand in \u201960 there were dozens of plane hijackings, making air travel less pleasant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
More dangerous <\/h4>\n\n\n\n March 1966 plane crash<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Major crashes today are incredibly rare, especially when it comes to American carriers. In the 1950s and 1960s, U.S.airlines experienced at least a half dozen crashes per year \u2014 most leading to fatalities of all on board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Plenty of legroom for everyone <\/h4>\n\n\n\nPlanes in 50s had much more legroom<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
In 1950s, you didn’t have to pick between business or economy class seats, because there wasn’t a distinction between them. After airlines started adding first-class sections, passengers still had much more legroom than on a modern plane. First-class passengers got a place resembling a hotel room, even with beds, while economy class was more akin to business class nowadays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Smoke wherever you want <\/h4>\n\n\n\nSmoking was allowed by all airlines until late 80s.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
You could smoke cigarettes on airplanes until Feb. 25, 1990. Until the federal government finally banned smoking on all but a handful of domestic flights over six hours in duration. Ten years later, smoking was prohibited on flights between the United States and foreign destinations. Nowadays every commercial flight in the world is smoke-free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You’d have to dress up<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Almost everyone wore their finest clothes to travel. Since in \u201850 flights were a luxurious experience, passengers dressed in appropriate attire: three-piece suits and hats for men, and dresses, high heels, and fine jewelry for women. It was a big event – so wanting to look your best made perfect sense. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Air hostesses were like movie stars<\/h4>\n\n\n\nAir hostess looked great at all times<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
In the flights of the 1950s, air hostesses were like movie stars. They were selected for their looks and there were regulations on how much they could weigh. They had to be single too. And they wore body-sculpted uniforms, corsets, and sometimes white gloves. And always a hat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Eat and drink like in a restaurant\n<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
1950s and 1960s flying was really expensive, people saved for it and did it occasionally. So passengers expected food and drinks to match. Champagne and brandy flowed endlessly and a flight seemed like a cocktail party in the sky. Lobster and beef carved as you salivated, buffet tables and nicely-folded napkins. As there was not much to do during the flight: reading, talking or eating, some meals lasted for three hours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
