Sounds like the industry is extremely efficient. Why would we want to turn this into regulated utilities?

Because efficiency is not the end goal of life.
So the end goal is making poor people pay more for the flights home on holidays so that the investors can have higher returns?
How about transportation?
sounds like it's not efficient at all? it's barely functional as a business and is only surviving on grifty addons?
This is a textbook case of competition pushing profits down to 0. That's an ideal case scenario. Why would you want to change this?

"Perfect efficiency comes at the point of collapse"
Don't know where I read that, but it seems apropos.
It’s highly functional. It’s barely profitable. That’s good for the customers.
It’s perfectly competitive. There is no rent seeking on the core.
Good? It’s dirt cheap
