JLS Consulting’s John Strickland told Abta’s Aviation Forum on Monday (22 April) he was seeing “quite stunning levels of pricing” in the market.
“In my whole career, I have never seen airlines flying really, really, full flights and getting high prices as well. We are getting the best of both, which brings challenges in terms of affordability for consumers.”
Strickland said many airlines had sought to return to profit in 2023 after the “gruesome” Covid years and had reaped the rewards of pent-up demand combined with a lack of supply.
