I remember waiting at the gate for my dad. There is a picture of me, age 3? 4? with my mom and dad on the tarmac as he is boarding a PSA get for a work trip. The first time I flew we went to Sacramento and we did not use a jetway; stairs rolled to the plane, and we walked 300-400 feet to a tram that they loaded our bags onto.

Flying used to suck in a lot of ways, but the payoff was better than now.
