minus-squaremazigoth@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up37·1 year agoThat’s half a year’s salary for a LOT of people, damn right it’s expensive
minus-squareILikeBoobies@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up5arrow-down1·edit-21 year agoA one way first class from Toronto to New York City is 1-3k On the low end that’s only 20 people for a private flight, on the higher end it’s 6-7 for a whole plane
minus-squaremonk@lemmy.unboiled.infolinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down33·edit-21 year agoNot a lot. Several percent, maybe. EDIT: not a lot of people is what I meant. Most earn much, much less.
minus-squareTheDonkerZ@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up23·1 year agoI actually can’t tell if you’re being serious or not… Are you…? Average salary in my city is ~$60k. $20k for a flight is ludicrous.

minus-squareDaxtron2@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 year agoAnd yet there’s no where that $20k USD is a reasonable amount
minus-squareMadhuGururajan@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up5arrow-down1·1 year agoThat makes you even more wrong as 20k USD is quite expensive.
minus-squaremonk@lemmy.unboiled.infolinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·1 year agoThat’s what I’ve been stressing in the first place!
minus-squareTheDonkerZ@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoI live in Canada, so… Doesn’t have anything to do with $20k being absurd, but…
