Yep, you never really "shopped" for fares as they were all similar, yep, it was more of an "event" that people dressed little or a lot nicer for, yep, they could shamelessly tout the attractiveness of their FA's, etc. etc. etc.
Scroll about half way down and there's a photo of the first male stewards on PSA. Anyone know why all were Asian or just coincidence?
