Because consumers wanted that.
Every time an airline offered a slightly cheaper fare, they took business from an airline that offered better seats or more amenities.
It was a race to the bottom in fares.
Now, as a result, you can fly across the country for less than a tenth of what it costs to drive your car the same distance.
And at nearly ten times the speed.
If you want more room, just pay for first class.
Or buy your own airplane.
