Unfortunately, you are spot on. These days, the level of service rarely leaves you feeling like you paid for a "premium" product, or sometimes paid for anything at all. :/
It's slid all across the industry for a variety of reasons. I think it's a lot having to do with costs-hedging related to fuel spend and difficult to predict market variables (terrorism, natural disasters, rowdy football hooligans (I jest, some)).
The days of Dapper Dan smoking a stogie on some 747 and pinching the hot PanAm girl's butt after she's given him her hotel details are long gone. And I am too young to have truly known them anyways...
