Solo Travelers Charged 'Significantly' More by Top Airlines Than Pair or Group Flyers: Report

Fuente: International Business Times

A new report reveals that the nation's three largest airlines—Delta, United, and American—have been quietly charging solo travelers more than passengers who book in pairs or groups. While it wasn't found to be widespread across all routes, a Thrifty Traveler report discovered that on select one-way domestic flights, solo travelers are routinely paying significantly more—sometimes $80 or more—than if they had booked with another passenger. In several examples, prices for individual tickets dropped sharply when travelers searched for two or more seats, even on the same flight.
