Interesting how people value low prices and companies are reacting to their wishes.

Avg. air fares have only dropped 13.8% since 1995. Nearly 20 years of innovation later.

In 1995, jet fuel was $0.50 per gallon. Between 2010-14 it was almost $3 per gallon. It's about $1 now.

Sounds like a fantastic achievement compared to college education, health care, or government.
