Exploring the unique social dynamics of air travel, this book delves into the cultural, economic, and political dimensions of flying. It likens airports to cities, highlighting the distinct behaviors and etiquette that arise in the air and at terminals, which contrast sharply with life on the ground. The author examines themes such as the emerging culture of frequent flyers, the nuances of air travel interactions, and the evolving global culture that facilitates these experiences, reflecting on how society adapts to an increasingly interconnected world.
