Travels on AA in the late 50s
With the "delicious" food, served on a tray which you balanced on a plump pillow (every seat had one) while trying to cut the food. Being pre-teen at the time, I remember how hard it was to cut the meat without the tray and food sliding onto the floor or my lap. Tray tables were yet to come, AND every tray had a small pack of three cigarettes.
