The transportation and airline industry is now beginning to profit as much as possible with new pricing and restructuring strategies, beginning with this major Delta Airlines pricing strategy.
The airline industry has been losing money in the last few years - which is a fact. My key question for this article is whether or not this change is a significant reason to re-categorize all "Coach" class (meaning everything that is not First Class) airline passengers into "cheap, middle of the pack, and luxury conveniences" in the official form of 3 specific categories - "Basic Economy, Main Cabin and Delta Comfort+".
What is your feedback and thoughts on this segmentation of previously cheap "Coach" Class tickets into 3 distinguishable ones? Would you prefer one Coach (aka cheapest tickets available) ticket or do you agree with Delta (and, I am quite certain due to the profitability increases of each plane seat taken) in terms of separating it into 3 Coach Ticket Classes?
