The number of people taking to the skies is rising and so are prices.
According to the chief executive of Germany's largest airline, the increased price tag for a flight isn't just necessary, but good.
Lufthansa boss Carsten Spohr said several pandemic-related factors have prompted airlines to increase prices, telling the Telegraph this was important for the industry and the planet.
"I believe that prices were too low before Covid. €9 or £9 [for a flight] from the UK to Portugal is not healthy for the industry, not healthy for our environment," he said.
Spohr isn't the first to speak about the end of this particularly cheap era in air travel.
