So based on this a 5 hour coast to coast would need an increase of about $8 per ticket to cover the increase, not too much in my opinion.
You are correct sir. But acl's point is that management shouldn't have to change anything. We must be happy with whatever
THEY say they can afford to give. If management says ~8 bucks a ticket is too much, we have to be OK with that. Surrender!
