Air travel could go back to being affordable only to the affluent, with plebes splurging once every few years for a special trip.

The cost is definitely going up and will continue to go up. I think the last 10-20 years of air travel will seem pretty cheap looking back on it.
Am I the only one that looks back at what flying used to look like years ago when people seemed to have manners and it was an event? I understand airlines don't work that way anymore, but man, if only.
