Actually airline tcket pricing, with quite rare exceptions, normally makes considerable sense, in terms of maximising their revenue. It s far and away the most developed revenue approach there is. Just because all the parameters are not readily understandable to the end user does not mean it is not quite logical in its primary goal, which is to maximise revenue overall. It took the airlines themselves many years and much cost in analysis to get to the current position, and refining it continues.
I do notice that with bland comparisons there are very often key bits missed out, like one of the examples not staying over a weekend whereas the others do so, or one has some trade show or other high demand element associated with it.
