Yes. Really crazy. I have several examples where P/Z seem won't price for the return with the outbound. In the last three weeks I have seen this with PVG, HKG, DEN, GRU... crazy prices (more than double AF/KL/IB/BA and even AZ!) and even more than double with EK/QR (see the revenue management is losing the plot thread).Originally Posted by NA-Flyer
Another factor to talk about is LH crazy pricing these days for business class fares and zeroing of P and Z fare buckets to increase yields despite having low loads.
