Good luck out there! TravelTuesday
A record 257.4 million passengers are expected to travel on U.S. airlines this summer, according to a new report from Airlines for America, a trade organization that represents the airline industry. That’s up 3.4% from 248.8 million passengers last summer, which was the record at the time.
The average domestic airfare was $350 in 2018, the lowest inflation-adjusted price since 1995. New tools are making it easier for passengers to map out the cheapest flights possible. But low airfares do come with trade-offs. Seats are getting smaller to accommodate more passengers on each plane, and airlines are getting better about ensuring that flights are as full as possible.
Travelers still need to exercise caution when booking. Other flight fees are rising as many airlines have turned to “unbundling” services in order to offer attractively low ticket prices.
