I have the solution.
To avoid the "Caveat Emptor" scenario and allow everyone to travel fairly, the airlines need to be regulated.
A fare is a fare and should be the same cost for the same passage. The only thing de-regulation did was allow the airline to complicate the system to the level where they can create a predatory environment that attacks clients met unaware of their policies or just fall into unfortunate circumstances.
In most businesses, a fair price for a fair return is a requirement but this is not true within the airline business. Some of the best textbook scams and cons are becoming some of the best revenue opportunities leveraged by the airlines. I would like to see some of the people who support these policies go to jail just like the average street thug because they are little more than that but I will settle for industry regulation.
