Why the worlds airlines are not going broke The importance of ancillary revenues - a la carte charges, commissions on travel-oriented services and the sale of frequent flier points - is driving airline revenues like never before. What began as a trickle has grown to a flood. The annual CarTrawler survey of global airline ancillary revenue shows growth to $31.5 billion for 2013, an increase of 1,200% since the first such survey in 2007. Ancillary revenue reported by airlines reached $16 per passenger in 2013, easily surpassing global figures for profit per passenger. Ancillary revenue now provides the power to allow airlines to be profitable.
