The future is probably to only allow the middle-class and the well-off people to fly again, the tickets costing 5 or 10 pounds from London to the likes of Prague or Malaga that used to be so popular among the young and the low and low-middle-classes will probably be a thing of the past.

The same goes for personal cars, the governments are all too happy to give money directly to the high-middle-classes so that they could buy EVs costing north of 40,000 euros while imposing very high taxes (when not banning them altogether) for 10 to 15-year old SH cars favoured by the low and low-middle classes (because that's all that they can afford).

The Financial Times has had a really interesting article [1] on this a couple of days ago from the perspective of those high-middle class people, some of them are worried that the low and low-middle-class people will revolt once put in front of these new realities (like the Gilets Jaunes have done in France), but imo they will most probably do nothing of the sort.

If tickets will be that cheap, why wouldn't poor people travel, too?

Edit: Nevermind, misread.

I think he said the opposite, tickets won’t be that cheap anymore.

They are that cheap now and relatively poor people travel.
