Q1: @TravelAgeWest was first published 50 years ago (and Travel Weekly 61!) What is something you miss -- real or imagined -- from the so-called Golden Age of travel? #TWchats


A1: @twtravelnews While we love the convenience of mobile & printable tickets, we miss the days when #cruise tickets were elegantly packaged and mailed to guests. They made great souvenirs! RT if you agree! #TWChats


A1: Courtesy. And it was real. A genuine pleasure in welcoming a traveler, and a sort of genuine gratitude that you were traveling with them. There was also a sense of a shared thrill, an interdependent adventure. #TWchats

A1: Two words: Leg room! Who remembers when you could sit in a plane's economy cabin without your knees knocking into the seat in front of you? 🙋 #TWChats

A1: @TWtravelnews @TravelAgeWest Congratulations on your anniversaries! We believe we're living the Golden Age of Travel right now! With more access and choices, people get to explore more of the world and in any way they want. #TWchats


A1: One of the first pieces we ever published was THE LAST OF THE GREAT HOTELS. #TWchats https://t.co/Rw8GzSXGYI

A1: The food! During the 1960s, restaurant-quality meals were common. You could dine on anything from seafood platters to dessert bars. Flights even had their own professional chef! #twchats

replying to @TWtravelnews @TWtravelnews @TravelAgeWest A1: Our clients miss the fine dining experience while flying. The seafood, champagne, + chef service was available to everyone on the flight! Lucky for us, Pippa works to get her clients a fabulous flying + dining experience. #twchats #tzelltravels https://t.co/nFaMxxhMsM

A1: @twtravelnews There's nothing like the sophistication and glamour of the attire from the Golden Age of Travel. Everyone was dressed to the nines and looked so elegant! #TWChats

A1: I must say — I miss the ability to fully disconnect! With our incredible Wi-Fi onboard our ships and on flights, you are truly reachable everywhere! Do you prefer disconnecting or staying connected? #TWchats

A1: We miss the exuberant colors and patterns of flight attendant uniforms of the Golden age! #BraniffInternationalAirways #TWchats

A1: We miss stargazing! Although, it's definitely something that you still can do (Here are a few of our favorites: https://t.co/8nx4rkLzj5), but it was so much brighter back then and we miss it. ✨#TWChats

A1: If we are being honest, playing board games on the plane instead of watching movies brings back some nostalgia. Does it count if your golden age was the 90s? #TWchats

replying to @TWtravelnews @TWtravelnews @TravelAgeWest A1: flying being an experience rather than an exercise in cattle movement. #TWChats
