Accessibility to Better Transportation

While I was on my flight to Puerto Rico last summer I realized the environment around me. The people that can afford good flights, i.e. the middle and upper class, have an advantage in being able to go where they want to when they want to. This is a stark contrast to those who can afford to go on a vacation once a year or every two years and have to deal with the hyperinflation in over-marketed areas with excessive tourism. On top of that the comfortability each airline offers is unfair to the other low tier airlines because it gives everyone a different experience when they cant afford to live in that luxury.  Not only does this discourage tourism by the middle class, but it discourages islands as places to live and build lives at. Through this, small businesses see a decline in growth and availability and make the market more industrialized.
