Reason I: Demand of air travel among consumers is several times more than the availability. If demand is very high compared to supply, airlines can maintain high ticket prices even if fuel cost decreases. This explains the statement. Reason II: The Government has uplifted all restrictions on the pricing of air tickets. If there are no price restrictions, airlines are free to set ticket prices as they wish. While this is true, it does not directly explain why prices were not reduced despite lower fuel costs. Ā This does not explain the event directly. Ā Answer: Only Reason I explains the statement.
