Because the lower price now is for nothing in a middle seat. And you have to upgrade until you pay the same price you paid 30 years ago. But doing it one bit at a time, makes it feel more expensive and miserable.

I flew 30 years ago & remember paying about $600 to go to Europe from Vancouver. That's $1200 today. Which is about the same as I'd pay now for an average flight once I factor in bags and seats. The difference is we see a lower price now and then have to upgrade and it feels more expensive.

The only positive thing about all this, is that maybe someone will notice the absurd claims launched by the so-called "Qayqayt First Nation" in New Westminster. A band the feds admit is made up, that is opposed by the real FNs of Kwantlen and Musqueam. www.sct-trp.ca/en/claims/li...
