My car is much nicer than any seat in coach. I won't be touching or smelling the people around me. Nobody will screech "safety information" at me and then provide desultory food and drink service. The sandwich from Rein's will be tasty, and I can reek of garlicy pickles without offending anyone. I'll watch a movie from the Millennium trilogy in the extended cut with the profanity and nudity, and I'll talk on the phone as loudly as I please.

Once self driving cars come, airlines will rediscover service and make 80% of their customers pre-checked or they will lose half their business.
