To an extent, but it's also a matter of North American fliers being nowhere near as willing to pay such a premium, and those that are willing fly private aircraft. The other thing is the financial burden the airline takes on with this type of cabin, note this flight with only 3 of 12 suites occupied and the author is there because of an upgrade... fuel is about $180,000 for the two legs...
