Hence the reason several of them are eliminating staff, routes, stations and fleet.

I'm shopping for tickets to Toronto for the end of the summer and the prices I'm getting are $1000 to $1200! Thats about $500 more than usual! Outrageous!

Not if they are already losing money on each ticket.

But with more demand (volume) wouldn't that allow them to increase not decrease the fare? I think the same airlines service Barbados and Belize except Continental. If they were concerned with the cost of each plane load wouldn't they save money using bigger planes?
