Sam -- The airline profit forecast claims that ". . . profitability is still expected to improve over 2024 due to lower fuel prices and record passenger numbers. . ." What they left out was that the record passenger numbers were due at least early to lower fare prices. This doesn't sound like an improving profit forecast.

I've been seeing a lot of lower seat prices, but that is mainly restricted by limitation on checked bags and carry-on luggage. Higher prices for essential living costs – food, electricity, clothing (no matter what the country of origin is), education, and healthcare – are curtailing demand for non-essential services that include air fares for vacations.
