This and the loss of the likes of Niki, Lauda and Air Berlin plus the collapse of traditional charter holidays and nipping into your local travel agent because now you just load up skyscanner. It’s very much now about getting the cheapest price, whereas it used to be about letting someone else set up your holiday and enjoying the experience. We lost a lot in the banking crash of 2008 and it’s never really recovered. Sad.
Shameless promotion but I included a little article I found on the wayback machine at the bottom of the suggestion about a round the world tour the airline did. Don’t know if such things are offered anymore lol.
