Ahh, "the good ole days" when suitcases could fit in any way (thinner in all dimesnsions, no "expansion" pockets) and the few cool people out there had their own fold up "wheelies" that they would put under their seat. People had 1 carry on that was smaller with only 1 handle on the side without "feet", and maybe a briefcase that fit under the seat and possibly a wheelie that fit on top of the briefcase...at most. But hey, that was the end of disco, PATCO, and hostages in Iran, the start of cocaine, Ronald Reagan, "Say no to Drugs", and frequent flyer programs. I've got mixed opinions of those years...there was no E+ and upgrades didn't exist, but a solid meal was served if you bought F and 747s had bars in them.
