I hate how airports feel like militarized zones now (lemmy.world)

I remember my first time flying in the eighties, couldn't believe the amount of quality flange in the airport. I didn't wanna travel any other way. All that changed with rise of the budget airlines, starting with Ryanair. Now every swamp donkey and bushpig can afford to fly, diluting the experience to a tragic degree.
