Congressmen who are elected to represent the will of the people and serve in their interests. I'll take that over the airlines who serve only themselves and whose only motivation is to take as much money from the public as possible.
Then there is gonna be a gold rush of airline startups leading to amazing innovation, offers and low prices for consumers. Unless your government intervenes and regulates the market into a monopoly of incumbents, of course.

Corporations are at the mercy of their consumers and investors. They get toppled every day. Remember Nokia? Motorola? IBM? Zoom? Heck even Intel lately?
is not at all the same thing as having a choice.
