You traveling alone is giving other passengers the ick. We'll have to charge you more to compensate.

Nothing new. Airlines have been hitting passengers with higher fares for the past half decade.

Don’t care, still paying the pecker tax and making everyone seethe. I’m enjoying my life in spite of society.

These fucking normie rats don’t even understand their own misery and think getting a bunch of likes on their socials will salve the pain lmao

From the actual article:
>The rationale, according to airline analysts, is straightforward: solo travelers are more likely to be business travelers, who typically book flights with less concern about cost due to corporate budgets. Airlines are using fare rules to target those perceived as less price-sensitive.

but don't let that get in the way of your own narrative

Doesn't affect me.

Technically, I pay higher taxes because I'm not married and I have no kids. That's a bigger problem, but you don't see me complaining about that.

Even the budget carrier Norse Atlantic from Berlin to JFK is $220 on the cheapest days and $400 for all of July.

Maybe Seattle to Cancun, IDK. Mexican tourist industry subsidizes flights to Cancun, but of course you pay through the nose once you get there.

>favoring families over solo and business travelers
That makes no sense. Families with kids are the worst possible customers. Only looking for the absolutely cheapest fares, creating much more overhead, and only fly once a year. They provide the least revenue, they are the ones whose prices should be raised.

Families with kids are the largest overall contributors to the economy. Families with kids should be rewarded. White dork Incels/chud Sexpats and wine aunts/cat ladies contribute less, have no kids, and are the reason countries are being flooded by migrants.

They're mostly not a factor for regular carriers as they fly mostly charter flights to charter flight destinations often from small airports or super budget airlines. Typical Euro Family destinations are super meme beach destination for the upper lower and bottom of the middle class like Baleares, Canaries, Antalya, Sharm El Sheikh or Hurgada by plane while the other euro destinations are bus or car destinations.
Interconti you get a small number of upper middle class families but as soon as you don't fly to a meme destination (Dominican Republic, Phuket, Bali, Cancun to name a few) the numbers of families will drop to almost zero and what is left won't fly economy anyway..

Maybe but flight crews and many passengers unironically think that way about solo male passengers unless they make it obvious they're traveling for business. Excuse me for getting triggered
