$170 US extra for this on a $200 flight

my parents just booked a flight also where they would have to pay $200pp extra if they wanted their pair of tickets to be together on a flight and not split up…

to add insult to injury they stick you on a boeing

I had no idea it was so bad they’re charging the same price as the flight for these “perks” - last I remember it was like a $30-40 difference not $170!

I guess that’s the only way they can keep air travel accessible to most and also barely stay afloat eh

And where they really make their money is their airline rewards programs. So much so that their businesses flying people are almost all money losing

my son and i flew together recently and we're talking about all the expenses for airlines and how is it even possible for them to be profitable, but also we don't want to pay more...
