SINGAPORE (Bloomberg): For more than two years, the main topic of conversation pretty much everywhere has been about the impact of Covid-19. Now that the worst of the pandemic seems to be over and people are travelling more freely again, another hot topic is on the tips of everyone’s tongues: expensive plane tickets.

People are looking for flights -- sometimes their first in years -- in a rush of what’s been termed "revenge travel.” Internet searches show sky-high airfares for many routes, yet travellers with wanderlust are opting to stomach the higher costs after being grounded for so long.
