The prices spend more bad news for airlines and passengers.
Even before the announcement of Donald Trump’s “Liberation Day”, the actions of the three major airlines had dropped around a quarter in a month.
Analysts have already warned that airline customers should have less Spend money while plane ticket prices are increasing. Analysts from Morgan Stanley and Bank of America said that the effective rate rate was double what they expected.
US companies paying prices on the articles they import, prices should increase for Americans.
“The resulting purchasing power could take real growth in the income from individuals available in 2q-3q in negative territory, and with it the risk that real consumption spending can also contract in these quarters,” wrote the main American economist of JPMorgan Chase, Michael Feroli, in an analyst note.
Holidays are not a necessity, just like something that people can give up when they tighten their handbag strings. Cruise and hotel stocks have also plunged. Corporate trips should also decrease, as prices are designed to encourage business at home.
The prices higher than planned have exacerbated an already drear perspective for travel.
Delta Air Lines and United Airlines have dropped more than a third for the start of the year. American Airlines’ is down 44%.
The actions plunged Tuesday after Jefferies analysts lowered American Airlines and Delta Air Lines to have notes.
They said that consumers’ feeling was a four -year hollow and cited “macro uncertainty in swelling”. In other words, fewer people want to fly because of the state of the economy.
Monday, the leaders of Virgin Atlantic also warned against the softening of the demand for the Americans who fly to the United Kingdom – although the trips in the opposite direction remain at expected levels.
“We believe that it is a fairly natural reaction to the general uncertainty of consumers that there is in the United States per minute,” said financial director Oli Byrs in the comments reported by several media.
The day after the announcement of the prices, the Big Three Airline fell between 10% and 15% – compared to the 5% drop in the wider S&P 500.
Air ticket prices were lower this year due to slower demand, but some analysts say they become more expensive.

Air sheets to increase

The prices should hit Planemakers with the costs ultimately transmitted to passengers.
Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg told an audience in the Senate on Wednesday that 80% of its planes are sold to customers outside the United States, and a fifth of production materials are imported.
“Free trade is very important to us,” he added.
Morningstar analyst for aerospace and defense actions Nicolas Owens said: “Investors concerned about the fact that new import prices could be devastating for American aerospace companies to overestimate the risk.”
However, there is also the risk of reprisals on exports. Boeing’s share price fell by more than 10% on Thursday.
While the European Airbus rival has an Alabama mounting chain, it should still import parts.
“Obviously, there would be an increase in the cost and probably at prices for airlines, and therefore at the end of customers,” said CEO Guillaume Faury in February.
In a note Thursday, analysts of Vertical Research Partners also warned that they expect the plane tickets to become more expensive.
“In the end, we see these cost increases transferred to airlines, and to the flying public, which will logically have a negative impact on the demand of passengers (…) and the profits of airlines,” they wrote.
Business Insider attended a summit at Airbus headquarters in Toulouse, France last week. At the top, the leaders spoke to journalists before the announcement of the price.
“We are in an industry where I think the prices will be very, very damaging,” said Faury. “Probably more harmful to the United States at first glance.”
He also underlined the effects of a 17-year dispute between the United States and Europe on subsidies given to Boeing and Airbus, with prices imposed accordingly.
“It was so bad for everyone that it reached a ceasefire,” he said.
Airlines have already taken a hit because Canadians reserve fewer flights to the United States. Europeans are also starting to lose interest in transatlantic trips, said the CEO of the Accor hotel operator.
While airlines have not yet seen a drop in demand on this road, the imminent trade war could change this.
