A number of transatlantic carriers make so much on cargo for each
crossing that the revenue from passengers is gravy. Oddly, you don't
see them lowering ticket prices in consequence, and they certainly
don't admit that passengers are essentially 100% profit.





You're an idiot and have no idea of what you're talking about.
