Travellers in Germany are finding it harder to secure inexpensive flights, a trend that marks a potential end to the era of ultra-low-cost travel. According to The Local, even last-minute bookings, which were once a reliable way to access affordable fares to destinations across Europe, have become significantly more expensive.
The shift is being driven by two primary factors: the rising cost of fuel and the decision by several budget airlines to move their flight operations away from the German market. As these carriers adjust their strategies, passengers face a less competitive landscape and higher ticket prices for regional travel.
