Three Ways To Better the Travel Industry

Let's face it: traveling could use a universal upgrade.

We travel because it is both necessary and fun: taking vacations, visiting family and exploring new regions are all positive and often imperative reasons to get on a plane.

But that doesn't mean that the journey should suffer at the hands of essentiality. As CNN points out, the industry of travel is a flawed one that, like most businesses, often must scrape by on less than flush cash.

However, there are still small steps that can be taken within the traveling world that will make our trips significantly better.

We're not asking for huge first-class seats in coach, nor lavish accommodations for dirt cheap prices. Here are just a handful of ways the travel industry could increase customer satisfaction.

1. Be clear about ticket pricing, please.

CNN suggests flights two hours or less should hand out bottled water and sell wine, beer and soft drinks at the departure lounge. This will save airlines money, (as the carts themselves cost carriers millions of dollars), space, and bruised funny bones.
