Gonna be a busy summer...
From CNBC:
Expect packed planes as airlines prep for busiest summer ever Airlines for America expects a record 236.1 million people to fly between June 1 and Aug. 31. That's an increase of 3.7 percent compared to last summer. Rising household net worth and low airfares are helping to boost air travel. .... |
sigh, non-reving and commuting is going to be a nightmare. I've already noticed that our planes are filled to capacity more than they have been in the last few months.

20% pay increase and forfeit nonrev benefits...I’d rather make enough to pay full fare for confirmed seats for my family than watch 7 oversold flights leave without us.
If you forfeited non rev benefits, how would commuters get to work? and for 20%? Not even close. At least 4 trips to Europe per year, usually with a family of 4...and first/business class on almost every flight. Plus the other small trips. The costs of that would be over $100k. |

121 outsider here. I’ve always been curious. How can you get into business or first class on an international flight?

By listing for a flight with unsold seats in business class.
Yeah it’s easy. It’s space available. Although on international flights your taxes will be higher the higher class you go. |
