Delta Thanks us By Taking The Bailout Money Then Price Gouging
People are still dying from Covid. People are still getting sick. These are far from normal times. We are still in a crisis.
I remember the days when raising price inordinately when there was a public emergency was considered price gouging.
I just looked at midweek fares to fly from SFO to JFK leaving 3 weeks from now. Delta's fares are all in the $900 range.
It's one thing to have demand based pricing in normal times. But doing it now is really disgusting. Grandma can finally visit her grandkids - but let's charge her more than double the normal fare. Let's pay the public back for helping us in out time of need by charging extortionate prices.
Disgusting.
