Business class flyers are being slapped around the chops with wildly expensive ticket prices to Los Angeles when flying from Australia. This is due to a surge in demand, high jet fuel prices, an influx in revenge travellers, a lack of staff industry-wide and the fact that airlines are conducting some much-needed balance sheet repair.
Australian business class travellers had better have a bloody good reason to fly to Los Angeles at the moment, with return ticket prices for flights from Sydney to Los Angeles currently sitting between $21,000 and $26,000.
