Why? Include in your analysis differing levels of elasticity, if relevant, and any other feature      b. Why would an airline use this practice?     Provide a dollar and cents example.                                                  The airlines caught up with this scheme and ended it. What principal of price discrimination did the students violate so as to end it?
