Vintage Advertising - Imperial Airways

 


From The Tatler, Summer 1934.  Six and a half days to Calcutta, nine to Cape Town!  I would like to see the itineraries for these flights, just for the names of the stopovers. 

 (For the cheapest flight you're looking at approximately $10,000 in today's dollars).

    Back when you dressed to travel and not for comfort. But then the seats were spaced out and comfy.

    Although I draw the line at pajama bottoms in the airport, I do admit that I much prefer traveling in a pair of knit pull on slacks and a nice t-shirt than a tweed suit, stockings and a girdle.
