Is Air Travel Becoming 'for Rich People' Only?

In other words, the thumb on the scale of air travel equity is slowly

but surely sliding from passengers to airlines. Yes, there is still an

occasional crumb for consumers, like the Department of Transportation’s proposed rule

that fees be shown as “every point” in an airfare transaction, which

sounds good, and I’m absolutely in favor of fee transparency, but at

every step of an online airfare purchase? All I can picture is some poor

schmo thumbing down his smartphone, laboriously trying to get past

inches and inches of densely packed, convoluted fee pricing information,

just to find out what his ticket will cost. Carpal tunnel syndrome,

anyone?
