How budget airlines REALLY make their money: Jet2 and Wizz Air rely on optional extras MORE than Ryanair, with only 65% of their income coming from ticket price
The world’s top airlines collected more than £31.5billion in extra charges in 2013, an increase of more than £4billion on the previous year. Some airlines are making up to 40 per cent of their money from charging for extras like seat allocation, checking in luggage and food and drink on flights, according to a report by consultancy IdeaWorksCompany.
