Synopsis:
- The advent of commercial air travel drastically changed the landscape of long-distance travel, posing a significant challenge to the shipping industry.
- Shipping lines faced dwindling passenger numbers as air travel became the dominant mode of transportation, offering faster and more convenient options.
- The industry was forced to adapt, innovate, and find new ways to attract passengers and differentiate themselves in the competitive travel market.
- This led to the modern cruise industry being born!

London Heathrow Airport in 1965. Nearest the camera are two BOAC aircraft – a Vickers VC10 (with the high tail) and a Boeing 707. Then two PanAm 707s. (Between them I think there’s an Air India 707) The aircraft vaguely seen in the distance, on the far right, is a BEA Argosy (with twin booms). On the left in the background are two Air Canada DC-8's - Adrian Pingstone - CC.0 - https://bit.ly/3zJDAYC
