See, stuff like this is downright shameful, look at how the flight ticket price just jumped. Yeah, when there is demand, the price can be increased, but these are people flying for their lives, right here. Yesterday, Hurricane Irma was upgraded to a Category 5.
With that announcement and Hurricane Irma headed straight for Florida, their governor, Rick Scott, announced an evacuation. Now, the people, especially of Miami and South Florida, are plotting their escape route. Those wanting to fly out are in for a terrible surprise.
Hurricane Irma, like Harvey, has already led to a massive increase in gas prices. Previously, airplane prices were at $547.00, but it has now over quadrupled in price. Now, the price stands at $3,258.50 for a flight to safety.
