Written by someone who may be put off by how ordinary people can now afford what used to be the exclusive domain of the rich.

Inflation adjusted, flying in 2023 is FAR FAR cheaper AND more convenient than it was in the late 1970's - yes, yes, yes there are problems in the US industry - but I suspect that most of the complaints are coming from people who cannot bear to see the astonishing access to flying to almost any corner of the US (and world)

We can keep on improving - I know one thing - if the US Government were to decide it knows better, the poor will lose - prices will go up and flying will become impossible for many except the rich and well connected
