  Ryanair also jacked up their prices once they removed competitors from same routes.

  I know that every single opinion will have someone that holds the opposite, but I didn’t expect to see one for “flying is cheap” so quickly. Can you explain your meaning or rationale? I’m guessing eco-/environment related?

    Environment related, yes. But also the way government subsidies in EU give flights an unfair advantage over better methods of transport https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EU_aviation_fuel_taxation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EU_aviation_fuel_taxation
