Yeah the airline industry is collapsing - the world is coming to an end and we're in the middle of some gigantic financial reset where the ultra wealthy are going reduce the population by a big number because they believe the scientists... but thats another discussion.

As far as 1980-2015's getting around in airports was fine and international flights were always a routine.

I cant say the same for needing to transfer on a train in a country that spells its A's like a square.
The airlines have been failing and getting bailed out forever. Heard of Panam? They were basically a monopoly at one point and still couldn’t make air travel profitable after they made an acquisition mistake

Which is the point. Your ticket price means nothing. It isn’t a reflection of cost in the same way that you driving on a “free” government maintained road isn’t reflective of its cost

$18.6 billion in 2001, ~$50 billion during Covid. $300,000 cost per job saved with the recent bailout

Pretty expensive man! In 2021, the airline/air transport industry spent $108 million on lobbying. Glad to see it’s working
