Airline Share of Americans flying with JetBlue 2021, by age
Air travel might not be the most environmentally friendly option; however, millions of people all over the world have increasingly travelled by plane between 2004 and 2019.
A key factor of this positive development regarding air traffic might be the increasing airline market share of low-cost carriers worldwide. These airlines offer tickets at reduced prices and even though one might have to pay additional fees for luggage and food, the fact that these low-cost carriers are operating around the globe increases the convenience and possibilities of travelling to one’s favorite destinations at low costs.
