The air sheets increase again after a crisis of several months while the carriers cut flights to relieve an overabundance of capacity

The latest report on the consumer price index has shown that air prices have jumped 4% in July from June, marking the first monthly increase since January.

During a large part of the first season of travel, consumers have experienced lower prices. Aerial declines fell 0.1% in June and dropped 2.7% in May compared to the previous month. But these days seem to be finished at the moment.

Airlines cut thefts more aggressively than usual when summer ends. The interior capacity among American airlines fell 6% in August compared to July, according to Cirium data cited by CNBC.

It is greater than the drop of just over 4% in the same period a year ago as well as the decrease of 0.6% in 2023. And in the summer pre-cook 2019, the capacity dropped by 1.7% between July and August.

The Air Canada strike could put another key to capacity while the carrier suspends operations. Canada’s best airline operates around 700 flights per day.

Earlier this summer, Airlines ended up with too much capacity, because their expectations at the start of the year for another travel boom struck President Donald Trump’s trade war in the spring.

After revealing much more stiff tariffs than scheduled in April, the demand for theft has slowed down while consumers became cautious about the economy and their finances. To avoid flying empty aircraft, airlines have reduced prices.

But Trump withdrew from his highest samples and signed several commercial transactions. With a certain uncertainty, the airlines indicated that the demand bounced. In fact, security projections at airports in July and so far in August are up a year ago.

“The world is less uncertain today than it was in the first six months of 2025 and that gives us confidence in a solid finish of the year,” said United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby last month.
