　　Somepeople think this trend can shorten the period of goods delivery, and boost thetourism industry. Many others, however, have a serious concern with theenvironmental pollution caused by more and more air flights. Personally, I amin favor of the former view, and my reasons will be explored as below.

　　Firstly,thanks to decreased costs of air driven by ever improved technology, airfreightis more cost-effective, convenient and available, which means residents in anyplace can enjoy a more efficient logistics of goods delivery, a higher-leveldiversity of imported commodities, as well as fresh food, vegetables, flowers,and seafood originated outside, at a lower expense. Besides, cheap air travelalso spurs a thriving international tourism. People, especially poor ones, noware more willing to take plane for going outside and visiting regions andcountries distant away. Therefore, an increased inflow of tourists creates morejobs and activates economic consumption worldwide.

　　Nevertheless,nothing comes for free and opponents argue that it is detrimental to theenvironment. Aircrafts consume a large amount of fuel which is a non-renewablesource of energy, and as such over-depletion of it would deprive futuregenerations of enjoyment of the resource. Apart from this, plane exhaustcontains a variety of air contaminants including carbon dioxide which is amajor cause of climate change. Pollutants in the upper atmosphere tend tosurvive longer in the environment and thus have a more devastating effect.

　　Inaddition to air pollution, the most worrying aspect is that this trend mightdestroy the natural land. Obviously, cheap air travel leads to a drasticexpansion of air transportation system. That is to say, forests, wet lands andjungles have to be flattened and developed to build up new airports andrunways, in order to meet the requirements of more frequent arrivals anddepartures of more aircrafts. As a result, massive species of plants andanimals will go into extinction, because of the disappearance of theirhabitats.

　　In conclusion,I believe disadvantages of cheap air travel are over its advantages. Althoughthe time and money can be saved through lower-cost air transportation, itsirreversible damages to the whole environment should never be ignored.(361)
