Basic economy fares were introduced by Delta Air Lines several years ago in response to growing competition from discounter Spirit Airlines. The new discount fares could help the big airlines by stimulating new demand and because some people who intend to buy a rock-bottom fare will pick a traditional economy ticket instead, Mann said.
