I'm sure the reduced turbulence is a big reason. Both aircraft design and better information to avoid areas of turbulence. I just should know the timeframe and just never noticed. (Presumably some point between the 60s and 80s/90s.)

I believe it’s been within the past 20 years, likely as a result of the improved navigation and weather systems, rather than purely improvements to planes.
