Wow.. the golden age of flying indeed. No commercial airline today comes close. Emirates' bar and Singapore Air's Suites look like broom closets in comparison to this!

Response to It was all so unique. And maybe for me this "experience" has more to do with the colors and styles associated with the 70s that makes it seem all the more special. Flying on planes now just seems so much blander, routine, less stylized.

that's why the engineers and designers of back then have to be respected. Technology has moved on since as we know with better detail and accuracy of fit and finish, material quality, LED lighting etc., but i will take a lot more work to really create a similar level of "experience" in today's context giving that flying will never be the same again. A tall order apparently.

Not the lounge for F/C, but for coach. F lounge was upstairs.

Some of these seats could be sold.

I remember smoking in the lounges! :)

A visitor from Chile posted Tue August 25, 2009:
Love these old interior shots, for us who didn't have the luck to fly on those great days, gives us a sense of how great flying was. One question: Were those lounge seats revenue, or just to be used during the flight by F/C pax? I noticed they are numbered.

Incredible. Coach lounge you say? What a time!

A visitor from United States posted Thu August 7, 2008:
While I certainly enjoy this photograph, I can't help but be saddened somehow. It seems that flying used to be such an experience, maybe even a privilege for all people involved, not just those seated in said lounges. It was all so unique. And maybe for me this "experience" has more to do with the colors and styles associated with the 70s that makes it seem all the more special. Flying on planes now just seems so much blander, routine, less stylized.

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sun July 27, 2008:
