Really? So what IS the cost breakdown then? If $1600 doesn't even cover the cost to put the catering on for a single leg, I'm curious what it IS covering. Like what % goes to cover the "We know why you fly" ads. Or naming rights on stadiums. Or executive salaries.

Sounds like you have the breakdown... so I"m curious to hear it. As a paying passenger, I think I'm entitled rather than just hearing that since fares are 1/5th of what they were years ago that I should only get 1/5th of the service.
