RE: British Airways Joins the Budget Airlines in Locking Seats. Should It Stop There?
This was so funny. I laughed all through reading, especially the frontier $24 offer. I could guess it will have hidden charges, but did not figure it would be up to $100.
They would have made it easy by given the full fare charge and save one the trouble of going through every of those steps. And be left with the choice if you want it or not.
Anyway, i can try to understand as they are applying market strategy to get you hooked.
Interesting post to read.
Spirit Airlines is another low-fare rip-off. All that's missing is the credit card reader on the outside of the bathroom door.
Hahahaha
Thats indeed awesome.
Lets upvote men, steem for life...
Yes, it would have been easier just to provide the actual cost. Since you're an expert in aviation, I take your opinion seriously! Thanks for the comment.
Thank you. The economy suituation also contributes to the hidden charges. Airlines are having a difficult time making good profit. But that is no justification, as it is not pleasant to a customer to go through all that.
I'm willing to wager that if there was an airline that had "normal" seats with a lot of space, a "good" in flight meal, with friendly staff, and as little hidden nickel and dime charges as possible, it could do really well for itself by word of mouth alone, even if the advertised price as much as double. (What do I know though, it didn't work particularly well for JC Penneys)
People shit all over airlines, all the time. I've only flown a handful of times, but it was the worst transit experiences of my life, I enjoyed the greyhound bus more, and the greyhound was a third the price.
Hahahhahahhah, funny but actually there was no other option, that was why you went back
I've been such position before in which the options you have is yes or yes
