Agree there about the ticket prices. Only a couple of weeks ago my sister and brother in law booked on a cruise that ends at Honalulu. The travel agent they used booked it all including hawaii stopover etc and return flights home to Sydney. That caused the problem. $2000 ea one way to fly on either Qantas or United home. I told them they are joking and got involved on the internet. The result $695ea on Jetstar a saving of nearly 3k. Sure the LCC might not be the best way to travel with no movies, pay for your meals etc..but, that is a massive difference and can only end up with the LCC's gaining the bulk of the tourist traffic in time unless the legacy carriers wake up to themselves.
