[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is one airline and this is for international long-haul flights, already mostly a luxury item.

There is no move to make domestic planes in the US half or even a third business class -- it's primarily economy and will remain that way. Even many wealthy people don't bother with business class for short flights.

Same thing in Europe -- the vast majority of flights are on budget airlines that are mostly or entirely economy class.

OP, you're rich, but are you also stupid?[/quote]

American has released an Airbus xlr narrow body with lay flat seats for domestic that takes up half the plane. Business class is the most profitable seat for airlines economy is bad for profit. Profitability: - Business: Most profitable. - Premium Economy: Priced 2-3x more than Economy with slightly higher costs. - Economy: May be unprofitable on certain flights. - First Class: Not very profitable due to high costs and space.

Once the price raises people will get used to it. A gray hound ticket should not be on par with economy [/quote]
