		pixl97 on March 29, 2023 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: The age of average You can pay more for first class, why aren't you? Also calling an airline a market is kind of iffy in many ways. It's highly regulated to keep planes from falling out of the sky. I'm sure there are many airlines that would give you a lot more space if they got rid of the crews that ensured all the bolts weren't about to fall out of the plane.

First class tickets are irrelevant, also terrible but that’s a lengthyrabbit hole.

The airline industry is loathed. No one likes them. The users are not happier but the market has pretty much converged on a business model.
