Description
Airlines are widening the gap between premium and budget travelers, with major carriers like Delta and United reaping profits from luxury passengers.

American Airlines is also pursuing luxury trends, while Southwests shift to assigned seating and extra fees boosted its stock. Checkout Solipillow.com
