More and more flyers around the world opt for LCCs for short-haul flights, which are typically of less than three-hour duration. As flying has become a necessity, saving wherever one can has begun to make serious sense to flyers—prevailing wisdom being why pay a fat premium for things like a skimpy breakfast or a tiny glass of juice or little bit more of leg space when it’s a matter of just one or two hours. Flyers increasingly prefer to stuff themselves at home or enjoy a wider spread at airport lounges than pay a fat sum on-board.
