Why Budget Airlines Prefer Worse Airports

Why do budget airlines sometimes fly to airports that are farther away, less convenient, and nowhere near the city you thought you were visiting? The answer comes down to airport fees, congestion, turnaround time, aircraft utilization, and the surprising economics of keeping a low-cost airline running. In this video, Boarding Logic breaks down why secondary airports can be extremely attractive to budget airlines—and why the airport that seems worse for passengers can sometimes be much better for the airline. Boarding Logic explores the strange economics, hidden systems, and counterintuitive decisions behind airlines, airports, fares, routes, and everyday air travel. #Aviation #Airlines #BudgetAirlines
