Part 8/9:
With the likely introduction of more stringent health measures, air travel may become more expensive. Similar to the heightened security protocols put in place after 9/11, the industry may shift towards increased ticket prices as operational costs rise. Despite this, many passengers may be willing to accept higher costs if they feel assured about their safety during travel.
Passengers must recognize that, while these adaptations might be seen as inconvenient, they play a crucial role in facilitating a return to air travel. Building confidence in the safety measures that airlines implement now will help ensure a smoother transition into a post-pandemic world.
