'worrals' I think yr more ref to the modern day so called educated well to do pax behaving like you described in which case yr mostly correct I was more ref to pax in the era of pre mass transport DC6's etc, they where the 'proper' pax to have aboard:-)
Some of today's bogun pax treat flying as it where just boarding a public bus that is rough as guts to them it's hurry up lets get aboard with as much stuff as we can carry for free & behave like cattle!
Also 'worrals' am not too sure "fencehopper's name is Sue but with a name like 'fencehopper' ya just never know
" (sorry 'fence' just a little joke)
