| The airline industry has been blamed for truancy because of parents taking their children off school to travel before school holidays (so called peak period). I wonder what members of this forum think of this the practice of inflating flight prices during school holidays. |

| It's simply the law of supply and demand. There are more people wishing to fly during holidays, so the demand is greater. When demand for anything increases, without a coressponding increase in supply, the price will increase. This is perfectly reasonable behaviour by the airlines and is the standard practice in all industries. |
