What to expect from Air Travel in 2015

  • Stable or even falling airfares
  • Fewer inflight amenities
  • Expanding business class cabins
  • New airplanes, new airlines

Probably what most of us expected.  More predictions at this link from Conde Naste Traveler.

Domestic flights have been much higher in 2014 in general and  the Conde Nast link states

United, Delta, American, and Southwest  make up more than 80 percent of domestic airline traffic. which doesn’t bode too well for lower fares or less fees in the US

i think international flights will be much cheaper in 2014 as airlines like Norwegian, and others expand.

The bar for new carriers is pretty high, though. They can’t have full route systems, so they are forced to either try to horn in on high-volume routes, where others can easily drop prices low enough and long enough to push them out, or on low-volume connector routes where money can be made only with poverty-wage crew…which is why the majors have left those routes. We’ll see, but I am skeptical.
