says:OK – I have often thought (while travelling cattle class) that if 3 seats cost $100 each = $300, would I be prepared to pay $150 for a two seat layout = $300 – exactly the same return for the airline.
The answer is a definite Yes – but will those two seats be charged at $150 each? I doubt it…
Obviously many travellers would not spend the extra 50%, but on a trip from, say, Brisbane – Perth, it would be worth its weight in gold – to me, anyhow!
