Airlines are raising their fares again!

Flying will soon become an expensive luxury that Americans cannot afford.  The price increase will only continue to skyrocket as long as the fuel prices continue to rise.  Someone has to pay and that someone is us.  Many Americans are taking alternative transportation, such as the railway travel.  There has been a substantial increase this year alone.  Train passengers say that the food is good and the sleeping arrangements are cosy.  As Americans, we need to think about hopping on to this concept of travel and readjusting our schedules to allow a little more time to arrive at our destinations.

Richard Anderson, chief executive of Delta Air Lines, said that in order for domestic carriers to break even at current fuel prices, they need to raise their fares by as much as 20%. “An airline ticket has got to reflect the full cost of fuel,” Anderson said. Meanwhile, Northwest Airlines chief executive Doug Steenland said that Northwest has all but exhausted cost-cutting measures.  MSNBC/Associated Press
