> airlines where the base price is akin to "we let you hang on to the wing", and everything else is an upcharge. This would actually be a better situation. Instead the base price is "this would be what we would theoretically charge you to hang onto the wing, but since that's not legally allowed there's no possible way anyone could buy a ticket for this price." If they were selling food like that, there would be a "state-inspected and legal to sell quality upcharge."
