PREPARING FOR TAKEOFF: AIR TRAVEL TRENDS

Many travelers tell us that the air travel industry feels vast and complicated; that it’s hard to feel informed, let alone empowered about making the right choice when navigating the open skies. In recent years the industry has seen carriers consolidate, air ticket prices fluctuate widely, and the choices of seat space multiply at a time when legroom has shrunk. All the while, fare unbundling has become the “norm.” Against the backdrop of all these changes, a number of interesting trends have emerged trends that can help travelers better understand when to purchase tickets, what the options include, and what prices they can expect for those tickets. We believe in helping our travelers feel informed and empowered to make great travel decisions for whatever their travel occasion may be.
