Because I’d say the context is entirely different

#18392

No, I’m saying that games are airline companies now charging people more for not being able to plan out vacations in advance.

#18393

I wonder how cheap/expensive tickets will be when planes start going again

#18394

will it cost more or less

I can arguably see both directions

#18395

Probably more expensive since some people are for the most part stuck in areas they don’t want to be
A family I know has one person stuck in India

#18396

And knowing how airlines are
I don’t expect altruism

#18397

poor souls who didn’t book a two way flight

#18398

But I don’t actually think airplanes are doing anything wrong by charging people more for tickets close to the departure date

#18399

(Isn’t meant as a joke meant as a RIP)

like I know they canceled it but they have to refund it this way right

#18401

so it would be more expensive if they didn’t book a two way flight

right

#18402

I don’t know the whole context
But I’m fairly sure they already bought tickets for the way back but coronavirus being a thing was indeed a thing that caused things to happen

Imagine being a backup for a flight

#18404

they aren’t but can we act like it is

#18405

banana

#18406

if the point of the analogy is ‘A is like B, and B is bad, so A is bad’ then B not being bad seems highly relevant

#18407

would a better analogy be

“Okay our Offical Booking for flights start at x date however there’s a rumor going around if you talk to them in person you can get a earlier booking”

#18408

that some people probably aren’t even aware of

#18409

That means the hosts are being toxic because they are showing favoritism to people who ask them beforehand

let’s be entirely fair
if we’re going to make this case, there’s no problem with also making the case that asking for extensions during game shouldn’t be allowed regardless since some people don’t know they can exist
