With no conveyor belts or automated systems in sight, each piece of baggage is handled with precision and care before being taken into the terminal by hand.
The scene exudes a sense of nostalgia and historical charm, reminding us of a time when air travel was a luxury reserved for only a few adventurous souls. It also serves as a testament to the dedication and professionalism of airport workers who ensured that passengers' belongings arrived safely at their destination.
