    Alternately: I remember when everyone on a flight could smoke. The cabin filled with a blueish unbreathable haze. Nobody had personal electronics, and in-flight entertainment was rare, so every child on the plane was continuously crying, whining, or yelling.

      No I’m flight entertainment?

      They had movies. And like 13 “radio stations” that repeated like every hour, you had to listen to with those weird non-electric head phones they would hand out.

        Ohhhh yeahhh… those headphones that were just tubes the sound traveled down, into your ears. I was too little to understand how they worked then. Thanks for reminding me!

          I got so bored once, I put my ear next to the arm rest where the plug was, and realized I could hear the audio. So those headphones were basically like a stethoscope.
