We've held up raising ticket prices as much as anyone by competition. But it became clear fares had to increase.

Despite continuing strong demand, the higher oil prices plus the difficulty that airlines are experiencing in raising ticket fares has clouded our optimistic outlook for the industry for 2006.

The only way these guys can escape higher fuel prices is by raising fares. The industry is working hard to raise prices. And so far they have been successful.

All the prices do seem to move in lock step. There has been talk of raising prices for several months. I'm surprised (music companies) raised the issue.
