Why were class B airspaces created? oh ya they are "Busy" airspace. Amazing that they appear where all the airline traffic is at. The idea that the airlines are trying to get their fees down by justifying a "blip" is a blip from air traffic controll so they shouldn't be pay by passengers is so one sided. Especially since they pass those costs to the passenger anyways. I don't see why they are complaining about paying fees for ATC services and traffic delays they created with hub and spoke.
