If you watch Mad Men, you notice that only upper crust, ubber wealthy people use to ride on airplanes.  It was a major luxury to be able to spend that much to get around.   Then coming back to the present time... it's still a luxury to be able to fly, however, it's more of a necessity now.  Especially, when driving to LV from SF takes way too long for my taste.  Plus, time is money!  \n\nI've traveled to and from Las Vegas many times and the service is always pretty good.  It's been on time, the lines move smoothly and efficiently, and the overhead compartments for my luggage is pretty easy to take care of.  I don't have any complaints.  And this time, we arrived 15 minutes early to LV, which is good because time is money, honey.
