No doubt it would.Hmmm...I kind of see his point. One has to wonder about the impact to the economy should airlines cease flying. I think it might impact even those who haven't even been in an airport, much less boarded a commercial plane.
Having an impact on the economy does not classify it as a utility.
I will say what I have already said once before. Commercial air travel is readily available and affordable so NOBODY in the general public cares about the results of deregulation. I know some people don't want to hear that but it's the truth.
I know some people working in the airline business are upset because they feel like they are working for less to subsidize a passengers cheap ticket (and to an extent they are probably right) but the general public really doesn't care about that, they just want available flights and they want them cheap and for the most part, the airlines have delivered.
