That there is the reality.
I agree with you completely. I'm not arguing against increasing price at all. It absolutely needs to happen. Just like you, I hope people can recognize that hiking prices is not some magical black box that fixes everything that is wrong with airlines without any negative consequences. In other words, to get rid of this idea (unless the intended point was exclusively distribution between competitors).


"If all airlines are required to raise prices equally then the competition dynamic is unchanged and we all benefit."
