Rod, not necessarily so. Low cost, well only when they have lots of seats left unsold, otherwise pay a real premium for a low class product. Want an example?...Treviso/Stansted the other day £110 one way...cheap or what?
Low cost is an illusion. If I pay £110 for a one way ticket then give me some free peanuts and some ice in a free drink. Has the world gone daft?
