People can already pay more to be more comfortable on planes - almost no one does because it isn't worth it. I'm fine with putting up with 10% less legroom to save 10% on my ticket, given that it is only a few hours and a ticket is several hundred. And I think the majority of the population agrees, given how full economy is compared to the more expensive classes (at least in the flights I am on).
- acdha 6y agoHave you ever seen 10%? When I look it’s usually 50% or a whole number multiple, which is big enough that most people aren’t going to pay.
- xvilka 6y agoI think price here works as a filter precisely for this reason. Otherwise the demand would be too high for airlines to manage and for business potential passengers to buy tickets.
