Madam Speaker,
The IFP is concerned that airline ticket prices are going to rise
dramatically next year.
This is going to occur it appears, immediately before, during and
after the 2010 World Cup, when hundreds of thousands of visitors are
expected to visit us to enjoy what they believe to be our honest
hospitality.
The actions of airlines capitalising on this high demand by doubling,
tripling and even quadrupling ticket prices are highly distasteful.
If media reports indicating this scenario are to be believed, then
something needs to be done to stop it.
The IFP calls on government to apply itself to prevent this price
collusion and blatant profiteering by airlines.
We ask government to commit itself to looking after the interests of
the consumers rather than that of big business.
