I was lucky enough to fly on 747s before de-regulation. When people dressed up to travel and weren't treated like cattle. I was too young to fully appreciate it, but on the other hand being young the stewardess (they weren't called flight attendants back then) asked me if I wanted to go help fly the plane and led me to the cockpit where the pilot showed me around and pinned my jr pilot wings on me.
Of course, the downside to regulating the fares was that most people couldn't afford to travel.
