Airfares may rise further while airline profits stay flat
Original: Why airfares could rise even more, but airline profits won't
Industry analysts warn that airfares could climb even higher in the coming months, yet airlines are unlikely to see the benefit in their bottom line. Rising operating costs, including fuel, labor and airport fees, are expected to absorb any extra ticket revenue, leaving carriers with thin or unchanged profit margins despite travelers paying more.
Why now: Travelers are frustrated by rising ticket prices and are closely watching whether airlines are profiting from the increases.
