Airlines are All-In on Premium Seating
If it was just one airline, it would be an outlier, but the entire airline industry is moving towards premiumization of the cabin. Alaska Airlines was the most recent company to announce that it is investing to cater to wealthier clientele with better (and more) first class cabins. Lou, Matt, and Tyler break down the strategy behind this industry wide move and whether it finally makes the airline industry a worthwhile investment. Plus, do you buy what these companies are selling and a lister question on growth in essential sectors.
