It is still the case that on some comparable routes the legacy carriers can be cheaper (bottom line) than LoCo's. I'm assuming you take a hold bag and a cabin bag. If you take sports equipment, often free or cheaper with legacy carriers, it will make a huge difference. A legacy carrier might mean a few shekels more, but the value can be much greater. I wonder how many pax do a thorough search or just assume that a comparison between the available LoCo's is enough.
