Fellow AFF´s,
this thread is not about current issues, best seats, latest tricks, or the Qantas bottom line.
I just want to refresh my aging memory, and get people´s recollections on what airfares used to cost.
I seem to recall paying a ¨couple of thousand dollars¨ for trans-Pacific travel Chile - Australia in the early 80´s.
The aviation scene (and history) interests me greatly. Yet another facet to this thing we all love which is air travel. I would truly appreciate anyone´s input with their recollections of actual historical travel costs. Sth America - Aus, the Kangaroo route, domestic fares. From any decade.
Or point me to a thread with similar info.
To start off, can anyone tell me how much SYD - LAX would have cost in 1980? And SYD-SCL the same year??
