Airlines have learned the hard way that flying more pax, at a loss, is not a win.

OMG!
People demand and expect the very best trained pilots, operating well maintained examples of the latest technology in perfect safety.....
But they want it for less than the cost of a bus ticket. Less than 1/5th the price of gas to drive a car the same distance!!
People are idiots
