Ask HN: Why is airfare so expensive in Africa?
4 by atlasunshrugged | 1 comments on Hacker News.
I understand why Europe has incredibly low costs (cheapo airlines, lots of competition including with trains, etc.) but within Africa flights are just incredibly expensive (sometimes I found it cheaper to fly from one African country to Europe and then to another one rather than within the continent). Just wondering if anyone has any ideas why and if there are ways to solve it?
