The first ad depicting the airline travelers stood out the most to me. The ad doesn't need any subtitle for it is a true example of how a picture is worth a thousand words. The happy couple is enjoying a buffet of wine and appetizers with attentive service. There is lots of room and privacy since there doesn't seem to be any travelers in any of the other seats.
I doubt if one could find an experience like this anywhere today unless it was on a private jet. Today, airline ads do not show the inside of the plane, but instead concentrate on discount fares and are less about the experience of flying and more about the destination.
After viewing all the ads it seems like the main differences between now and then include the following: 1) Today is more about family travel and the past just showed couples. 2) Past vacations were more about luxury than adventure. 3) The ads of the past made it a point to mention the level of social order or class. Today's ads are not so blatant about class, but there are still different packages depending on one's financial status.
In the end, any vacation, past or present, is a chance for the traveler to take a break from the everyday activities and is a time of relaxation and less worries.
