We don’t know how lucky we are

I stumbled over this 1966 German tourist guide to Yugoslavia the other day.

Don’t let anyone tell you that flying wasn’t a luxury back then.

Based on an gross annual income of DM9893, you would have needed to work close to a month for that (special tariff) DM418 return trip ticket to Belgrade.

These days?

At €32000 gross and €178 on Lufthansa (and there are cheaper flights…..)  just a couple of days.
