From The Wall Street Journal:
Airlines "are the world's best price discriminators," said Jan Brueckner, an economics
professor at the University of California, Irvine, specializing in the airline industry.
He notes U.S. travelers in general pay more to fly to Europe than Europeans pay to
fly to the U.S. because a stronger economy on the U.S. side pushes fares higher for
trips that originate in the States…. In addition, busy airports with lots of flights
to other big airports typically have lower fares, Dr. Brueckner says.
