Rumor has it that the price of plane tickets is currently going up insanely you know! Have you checked?
According to our monitoring, as of this writing, it has increased (13/6), for the route from Jakarta to Singapore for one departure in the economy seat.
What caused it?
The 'crazy' increase in flight ticket prices was triggered by the increase in aircraft fuel, avtur. In addition, the impact of the soaring demand for flights, but not accompanied by the availability of aircraft. It seems that this is not only experienced by Indonesian citizens.
The current increase in ticket prices is indeed very significant.
Usually not like that. It's only a lifetime when ticket prices have gone up that much. Maybe the laws of the market too. Demand increased but the number of planes dropped.
The global supply of aircraft seats is also declining. From the information obtained, there are airlines that used to fly eight times to Singapore, now only twice as a result of the declining number of planes. Also several other factors such as the cost of ground handling, navigation, and air traffic are also rising.
But indeed the increase is too significant (ticket prices), this has never happened, this is also an anomaly.
Apart from that, there is a market law as well, if the price persists, it means that up to now, there are still those who buy expensive tickets to Singapore and Malaysia.
Now, because of the increase in flight ticket prices, are you the team that delays traveling that requires taking a plane until ticket prices return to normal, or are you still willing to leave because you are already on leave?
