For many 188bet，Income other than air tickets is becoming more and more important。

According to a report released last week by the American consulting firm IdeaWorks，Global 188bet are making more and more money from ancillary revenue，The number of companies willing to discuss relevant data is also increasing。So-called auxiliary services，That is, 188bet except passenger transport、Businesses other than freight，For passengers，The most intuitive thing is that you want extra luggage、Better seats、Better food、Money paid for VIP room and other services，But there are many more，Including 188bet selling miles to credit card and other companies、And they promote the hotel、Commissions from car rental and other services, etc.。

2007，Only 23 188bet mentioned this revenue，They earned a total of 24.USD 500 million。Last year，There are 66 188bet disclosing data，And their ancillary revenue is much higher than the 2007 numbers，Reached .6 billion。

Among these 66 188bet last year，The three companies with the highest ancillary revenue are all US 188bet，The frequent flyer program accounts for about half of their ancillary business revenue。We discussed selling miles in another article，A major airline mile costs approximately 0.8 cents，After they sell this mile to the credit card company、Hotel、When consumers are waiting for customers，The price is often doubled or even higher。

Although United 188bet is the company with the highest ancillary revenue，But this revenue only accounts for 17% of its total revenue。The ten 188bet with the highest proportion of ancillary revenue are all low-cost 188bet，The number one US low-cost airline Spirit 188bet 46.4% of revenue comes from expenses other than air tickets。

This is nothing new，Although I am flying on a low-cost airline，But many passengers are willing to spend money to improve their experience。Take Spirit 188bet as an example，They had 2161 last year.80,000 passengers，The income from baggage fees and advance seat selection fees alone is 4..4 billion and 1.USD 1.1 billion。

After realizing this, many major 188bet，Seats similar to low-cost 188bet have also been launched to attract passenger flow。They are not just recruiting price-sensitive passengers，In fact, this is also used to encourage passengers to choose more expensive seats。For example, when you book United 188bet’ Basic Economy，The system will remind you，Just add ，You can choose more luggage、You can choose your seat、The upgraded economy class (Economy Plus) that can earn miles。According to United 188bet Chairman Scott Kirby，When faced with such comparison，60%-70% of passengers will choose more expensive seats。

In addition to selling these "menu-style" value-added services，188bet are also seeing lower ticket prices now，Find other ways of income，For example, with a car rental company、Hotels and other services sell supporting services，Earn commission from it。There are more radical ones，Irish budget airline Ryanair CEO Michael O’Leary has been describing his desire to make the company the “Amazon of air travel”，They launched taxi and hotel platforms in 2015 and 2016 respectively，O’Leary also claimed that if passenger numbers and ancillary revenue were high enough，Maybe air tickets will be free in the future。

At present, domestic 188bet are not very dependent on ancillary business income，There is not much relevant data disclosure。Last year，The ancillary business revenue of China Eastern 188bet and China Southern 188bet account for only 3% of total revenue respectively.1% and 0.5%，However, they all mentioned in their financial reports that this part of the business has become more important。Spring 188bet, which has increased ancillary business income since its listing, has increased its share from 5 in 2014.66% up to 8.39%。
