Everyone knows airline pricing is based on supply and demand. Fares are mores expensive during peak travel seasons like summer and to prime destinations like European capitals. So if a flight to Rome costs more than a flight to Milan you d think that demand for Rome must be higher or supply lowerWhat’s puzzling is that you can pay a high price to a given destination but a dramatically lower price for the exact same flight if you agree to go on to another destination.Take Alitalia to Rome for instance for travel in August A round-trip economy flight directly to Rome leaving JFK at 10:05 p.m on Alitalia 611 on August 5 costs $1,655 when booked on April 30 Compare that to $903 for a round-trip economy ticket to Milan(stopping in Rome)leaving JFK on the exact same Alitalia 611 flight at 10:05 p.m on August 5. So why is Alitalia willing to fly you to Rome for $752 less than it would otherwise plus give you an extra one-and-a-half-hour flight to Milan?Airlines have increased their profitability in recent years by segmenting the market for air travel and charging customers different prices for the same product. In this case the market is segmented based on demand for direct flights. Airlines know most people prefer the shortest route to their destination so they make customers pay up for the privilege of flying direct(They also make it a little more inconvenient if you don’t pay up for a direct flight in order to encourage you to fly direct)When process become so obviously illogical it may be time to why air tickets can’t be transferred or resold just like any other normal product If the airlines are entitled to exploit the free market shouldn’t customers be allowed to do the same thing? According to the passage, prices are normally determined by____A. the relationship between cost and demandB. peak seasons and prime attractionsC. the relationship between supply and demandD. travel seasons and destinations
选项
A. the relationship between cost and demand
B. peak seasons and prime attractions
C. the relationship between supply and demand
D. travel seasons and destinations
答案
A
解析
细节题。根据文段定位到第一段。我们可以知道这个一方面是建立在supply and demand,还有就是peak travel season和prime destinations,以及后文提到的destination。这样我们就得知在文段中提及的有B、C、D三项。但是唯独A项当中所说的成本和需求未提及。因此答案选A。
