Creator's Key Takeaways
A loss leader is something that a company sells for a loss or at very little to no profit basically just to get you in the door or to get you wherever they need you to go.
The goal isn't to make money on that one item. It's to make you spend more on everything else.
Cruise lines often price cabins very low just to fill the ship, knowing that once you're on board, you're going to spend money on drinks, excursions, Wi-Fi, etc.
The ticket is simply bait. The extras are the catch.
Creator's Tips & Advice
✓Be aware that base fares for travel are often loss leaders designed to get you to spend more on extras.
✓Consider the total cost of travel, including ancillary purchases, when evaluating deals.
