AFKL increased indeed its price schemes several times this year.
This is particularly true for long haul J and P tickets.
These increases have been performed in 2 ways : increase of the basis prices (each bucket fare costs now more than pre-COVID) and cheap bucket fares (notably O and Z) have almost disappeared notably for Asia and on US routes throughout the summer.

New prices could be seen as insane, but as long as AFKL find PAX ready to pay the displayed prices, there is no reason for AFKL to decrease the prices .

AFKL is aware about the danger of losing some (ex)loyal clients but this strategy is well assumed
