Oh, I didn't mean to imply they would fly near empty planes.

I just mean that travel will be for those people who ACTUALLY have to travel.

The ridiculously low fares which are required to fill planes at 7x daily frequency but are a losing proposition for the airline are what is killing service (and, coincidently are the MR'ers bread n' butter)

Hopefully airline travel returns to a smaller industry geared towards transporting the well-healed leisure and business traveller in a bit more class/style/comfort.
