Mass travel by air may prove to be more significant to world destiny than the atom bomb Picture Quote #1

The air travel industry moves into a new phase every five to six years Picture Quote #1

I like terra firma; the more firma, the less terra Picture Quote #1

Despite living in this post-9/11 age of transnational terrorism, the risk of death during air travel has plummeted to the point where we now measure it in the ‘per billions’ of passengers Picture Quote #1

I don’t think our government really has much of a policy about air travel. I would compare the policies of United Arab Emirates, which has done a terrific job recognizing the value of transportation, of travel Picture Quote #1

The glamour of air travel - its aspirational meaning in the public imagination - disappeared before its luxury did, dissipating as flying gradually became commonplace Picture Quote #1

My Christmas present to myself each year is to see how much air travel can open up the world and take me to places as far from sheltered California and Japan as possible Picture Quote #1

When the plane is delayed, it’s not the fault of the girl at the desk. I’m resigned to the fact that everything is out of my control and that air travel nowadays is barbaric Picture Quote #1

People aren’t just paying more to fill their gas tanks or when they pay for their heating bills for their home; they are paying more at the grocery store, on air travel and for many other daily expenses Picture Quote #1

The whole infrastructure of air travel was, and is, part of government policy. It is not a natural development of a free economic system - at least not in the way that is claimed. The same is true of the roads, of course Picture Quote #1

The scientific theory I like best is that the rings of Saturn are composed entirely of lost airline luggage Picture Quote #1

As the colonel and I sat swapping stories in the plane, a jet aircraft buzzed past our window. I asked the colonel what type of aircraft it was, and he said, Don’t worry about it, Bob. . . if you can see it, it’s obsolete Picture Quote #1

Because it’s cheaper and easier to fly than ever before, air travel is becoming democratized Picture Quote #1

Lovers of air travel find it exhilarating to hang poised between the illusion of immortality and the fact of death Picture Quote #1

A world with a sudden limit on air travel would be tremendously different from the one we live in now Picture Quote #1

The glamour of twentieth-century air travel helped to persuade once-fearful travelers to take to the skies and encouraged parochial Americans to go out and see the world Picture Quote #1

The European Union spends most of its time either suing me, torturing me, criticizing me or condemning me for lowering the cost of air travel all over Europe Picture Quote #1

We all know we have a problem, a broad problem. Ninety-eight percent of the fuel that is used by our vehicles, our autos and trucks for personal and commercial purposes, for highway and air travel operates on oil. The world has the same problem Picture Quote #1

My family went to Toronto to visit relatives when I was 13 or 14. It was the first time we had ever been abroad. This was the early Eighties, and I remember the impossible glamour of air travel - my mum spending days trying to decide what she was going to wear on the plane Picture Quote #1

Airline glamour never promised anything as mundane as elbow room, much less a flat bed, a massage, or an arugula salad. It promised a better world. Service and dress reflected the more formal era, but no one expected air travel to be comfortable. It was amazing just to have hot food above the clouds Picture Quote #1

Is there any possibility of giving international air travel, which we all need and use and hate, a touch of glamour, or even of reliable, soulless efficiency? I suspect future historians will puzzle over our failure. But by then, of course, we shall be in the age of mass space travel, with its fresh and unimaginable crop of horrors Picture Quote #1

The reason why people wear pajamas to the airport in the first place is so that they’ll be comfortable during their flight. But you know, typically, air travel is 50 to 75 percent of the time you spend traveling. The rest of the time you spend in public places like airports and around other people. That’s when looking good trumps comfort Picture Quote #1

I don’t want to be in a position that could make me vomit, like air travel. I’ve purloined airsick bags and stuffed them everywhere, just in case I ever feel the need to throw up. I haven’t vomited since 1977, but I think about it all the time. I recognize that it’s irrational, but I’d rather jump out of a window than vomit Picture Quote #1

The only thing to be said for air travel is speed. It makes possible travel on a scale unimaginable before our present age. Between the ages of 20 and four-score I visited every country in Europe, all save two in Latin America, ditto in Africa, and most of Asia, not counting eight trips to Australia and 60 to the United States - all by air Picture Quote #1

I understand travel. I understand the experience of travel. I mean there is something of the air-conditioned gypsy in me Picture Quote #1

What would air travel look like if airplanes were thrown out after each flight? No one would be flying in airplanes Picture Quote #1

We’ve only had aircrafts for a hundred years, and yet look at us. So, I’ve become absolutely fascinated by this strange, bizarre world of airports, air travel and transportation. It’s interesting Picture Quote #1

I have been a frequent air traveler since I was a few months shy of my sixth birthday, when my parents packed me off to boarding school two plane rides away from home. Those days of being willingly handed from air hostess to air hostess as an ‘unaccompanied minor’ made me blase about the rigors of air travel Picture Quote #1

I love visiting the Air and Space Museum. It always blows my mind how far we’ve come from the Wright Brothers in 1906 to modern space travel Picture Quote #1

Air travel survived decades of terrorism, including attacks which resulted in the deaths of everyone on the plane. It survived 9/11. It’ll survive the next successful attack. The only real worry is that we’ll scare ourselves into making air travel so onerous that we won’t fly anymore Picture Quote #1
